according to a war office report published in an old tankette the britsh had 4 m4 variants as dozers, the m4/m4a1 were deemed quite useless as dozers as you had to rev the aircraft based engine and it lacked torque, the 5 engined m4a4 was deemed better but the best one was the m4a2 twin diesel which had low down torque as deisel do have. ref the large hatch m4a1 dd there is a pic in the concorde book of britsh tanks showing one of these elusive dd tanks, the same type as the usa one found on the slapton sands memorial in devon, not seen any as std gun tanks however as yet, the one in the above pic is a std early hulled one, the way to tell is the late ones hatches when open are at an angle and not inline with the hull side like on the early ones.

plenty of shermans on british d-day beaches.

nice job

nice

nice job

really nice job on that, i had a novo kit given to me many years ago and that was badly moulded. i still have about 5 of these to build by eastern express i was going to use on a model railway dock layout. not sure what to do with them now?

great pics

great info, hope to make one for myself at some point

nice work

really great model, the rubicon kits have come on a lot, the m54 6x6 truck is lovely.

there was a running article in the tankette, the mafva magazine in the late 70-early 80's might be worth getting some they had scale drawings in them of various improvised armour of the home guard.

i was only asked if a made one last weds for someone gaming the falklands, i sad not yet! just working on some more cold war softskins m1070 & m1070f, commander & antar mk3.

nice job, scratchbuilding is so satisfying but getting all the details right is not always possible so you can get away with leaving things off, most people won't know all the details anyway. looks good so far i want to do one in 1/72 at some point. can't wait to see it finished.

smart work
