  1. This is my build of a Sherman Firefly 1c of the 3rd/4th County of London Yeomanry, 4th Armoured Brigade. I’ve taken some liberties with the stowage as I don’t actually have a photo of the tank, so it’s basically just my interpretation.

    The WIP can be found HERE.

  2. Thanks for the reply Glynn, but that wasn't what I meant (sorry). I was asking about he origins of the actual tank, ie; does it say anything in the instructions as to which nation built the tank as most of the Tirans  came from one country (Czech I think). Each country fitted different cupolas. Seeing as the decals are Syrian, it should be fine for a Tiran.

    The MiniArt kit will be for sale any day now - it will never get started let alone finished so it's just dead space.

    You and me both. I'll ry and get shot of mine at Telford. They are beautiful kits, but sooooo over engineered.

  4. It's turning out really well Glynn, and it's definitely persuaded me to look out for one at Telford. It should make an interesting project to try and turn it into a Tiran. One question though. Do you have any idea of the origins of the tank ie; Polish, Czech or Russian?

  5. I like the way that this is turning out Glynn. There's a helluva lot of detail in this kit, considering the small scale. It even has the deep wading frame. After seeing your build, I might try and pick one up at Telford so that I can turn it into a Tiran 4.
