He’s probably waiting for the replacement idler wheels

BTW, Pete, mind if I ask why you put a piece of extra armour plate on the left side? Real Shermans only had one plate on the left and two on the right.

Hi Jakko the replacement idler wheels are fot the Firefly, as for the extra piece of armour on the L/H side I do know but thank you anyway. It was down to sheer laziness of filling 4 x holes I just covered it with white card :flushed: as you can see I have remedied the the extra piece of armour.

It should of had $ x lifting ring as the instructions show.


All good now.

Hi I've done a bit more upgrading sorry.
Cut a slot for tans bolts (the black section marked at the front), Added front drive sprockets, removed the extra piece of armour on the L/H side and filled the holes.

I'm have more fun building these, than some of the 1/35 stuff I've done.
I've just ordered some ships and aircraft :tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:.
Glad you like what's been done.

Nice to see your using that make, did you know Ultimate import it from the States and rebottle in their own bottle's. Might be cheaper, from them .

I love it, the best I have ever used, so smooth .

Hi John unfortunately I do, I would use Ultimate Products if you paid me and I would get discounted as well, I was on there ISM forum for five years got ranked in the top five, I know how they work and what they say , not good, I could go on about them all night, I
won't. There are a few ISM members on here so sssshhhhhh.
Thank you those.

Looking much the better for it too

I noticed those on the photo you posted of the box lid and wondered why they put them there in the first place.
