Hi all this will be my next build. It looks like it is a typical Tamiya kit straight forward construction it has clear parts for the commanders copula and some parts have a cast texture already added.

Hi all here's the first part of my Sherman build I have started on the running gear and lower hull. The only problem I have had is that every road wheel and return roller needed a seam sanding off, the lower hull and suspension went together without a problem. -
It looks a good kit Colin and a nice start too.Comment

Nice one Colin
I'll be watching this one come together and for ideas for when I start my Sherman's
I've still to get an Easy 8
Looks like a nice kit and good start

I get all excited when something comes along and someone starts a new build. I was watching Kelly's heroes the other day and now I have seen this Colin I'm thinking of more Sherman's abs the scene of the 3 coming our the tunnel
And seeing as I'm on the AFV mode why not
Wife's gonna go nutsComment

Sounds like a good idea Robert. I'm sure someone does a figure set of oddball and his crewComment

Managed to get it painted using ammo olive drab set I must say I'm not impressed with the paint at all I spent more time cleaning the needle than I did spraying. In the end I had to use 30psi just to get the paint to atomise properly.Comment

Taking shape nicely Colin.....
Re. Oddball and his crew. When the three tanks emerged from the railway tunnel, the crews were all buttoned up, so no need for any figures - apart from perhaps, flying soldiers!.....
I have a tunnel entrance, railway track and the Shermans all lined up. All I need now is to be driven indoors when the cold weather finally arrives. Then I can make a start!!
Cheers all,
