Thank you gentlemen. The ruler included for scale as suggested.
1/87 Scale USA WWII Tank Destroyer Company
- Thread starter minitnkr
- Start date
Started doing 2nd Platoon. Has bolt-on front armor.
Paul
Yet again, really great work on these little beauties.
Out of interest is 1/87 very popular in the US? I'm not sure if I'd come across it before joining this forum, or is it a case of it's popular everywhere except in the UK because it's equivalent to HO, which is not very popular here, at least in railway terms.?
ATB.

More exacting micro work….lubberly jubberly!
Thank you gentlemen.
Andrew, yes I'm sure that's a factor. Very popular in the 60s thru 80s as a gaming scale due to the model RR structure/scenery elements available.
Steve, what those bolts & bosses were about on early & mid build M10s. An additional armor kit was envisioned but never deployed to my knowledge. There is some photo evidence of field expedient added frontal armor for M4s &10s as I've depicted here.

Almost done w/2nd Platoon.
About time you started another platoon Paul, you’ve still got a couple of square inches free on your bench 
Seriously, more great work in the jewellery scale….

Started third platoon. Progress pic. May add Med. detachment shown.
Looks like it’s time to advance Paul. Great work in this Braille Scale
Thanks to all for your support.
Hi Paul
Great work and great patience to complete so many vehicles. Working at this scale makes multi vehicle dios more manageable but getting the detail and quality must be hard on such small models.

Thanks Jim. These ROCO M10s are not as accurate as the Jeeps & M20s so take a lot more effort to make a reasonable representation. The turrets especially require a lot of modification.

10/10 Paul, agree with Jim.
