NavDoc Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Beautifully done - I'm wanting to try my first armor project and have this kit - it was recommended as pretty easy, which is how I want to start. Your build is an inspiration ! I wanted to check out your work in progress thread, but the link above doesn't work for me? Does it need updating? Or has it been removed? Would love to see it ----------! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Moore Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Love all the added stowage. Great finish and weathering Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREG DESTEC Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Excellent Sherman. Love all the extra work with the stowage and bocage removal prongs on the front. Weathering on this one is fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Beautiful build, the weathering is very nice. As Gregor said, the stowage on the rear deck makes it very realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Wow it's re-surfaced !! Thanks guys, really appreciate the comments - I must admit that I was more than a little disappointed when I first posted this that it sank without trace so quickly. This was my first serious armour build after more years than I care to recall, (I still build mainly 1:72 & 48 aircraft). Sorry about the link, gentlemen, but I took it down some time back. Once again, appreciate the comments, Ian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
