[Guest]

Hi could not help myself I had to start building this one :smirk:.


Parts. (will be adding some detailing as I go)



Wheels and lower hull.

Added some missing detail to the drive sprockets, and to the rest of the wheels.


Hull deck and rear panel.

Tracks, r/lights, tools, exhaust drilled out tail pipe.


Upper hull.


Main gun mount.


Thank you for stopping by.
Pete.

Pete,

You're not going to have any left by the time the GB starts are you Pete :rolling:

I know these things are not an accurate representation but I wonder why they put the bolt heads on the rubber tyres instead of the rims?

Hi Mike I have no idea what you are on about this is my very first toon tank that have built.

As for the Sherman if it's a toon you will need it for the GB in Feb.

Hi very very very small up date.

Removed bolt heads on the rubber tyres and made some over size toon nuts and fitted them to the rims, added a bit of detail to the rear idler.

Pete I like it a lot. The rivets look great and are a must, well done.

Great work Pete, and like Guy says the rivets really make it.
