discussion M551 in Vietnam.

[Guest]

Hello all, thought I'd put up photos of my winter break project that I built to give to my housemate who is graduating from his grad program. He's got a bit of a fondness of the Sheridan, so I've stepped a bit outside my usual subjects to build this. Besides not being my usual nation or period, this also has the most aftermarket that I've used with an Eduard photo etch set, resin stowage set, fruil tracks, and figures from masterbox (infantry) and Alpine miniatures (commander).

Great work, and I bet your room mate is well pleased with it. I know I would be.

Nice build, like the 'ol aluminium Sheridan with its 152mm Shillelagh missile.

Really like the tank, and love the stowage. Excellent job on the Diorama and the figures as well.

Very nice work Eric, I remember them from my days in country, aluminum coffins they were, crew would risk fire up on deck not to become chopped meat inside lest they hit a mine. Steel plates were welded under the drivers buttocks which gave little comfort I'd imagine...........Jim
