Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful build Craig. Keep the pics coming, look forward to seeing the finished product. semper fi, mike
Looking good Craig. Nice job on the road wheels. Wish my Dragon Firefly’s had come out so nice!
Looking good, great progress in a short space of time. Keep us posted on your progress!
Not as many wheels to paint as a Panther! One advantage to building Allied.
Very nice so far Craig. Great job on the wheels. Keep after it.
Looks good as of this time, Craig. I love the curves on the M4A1. The closest I have to it is the M-32 Recovery Vehicle.
he he that aint no joke!
Craig, Its looking awsome. Are you gonna texture the hull at all? I wish I had remembered to paint behind the bogies on my last Sherman vehicle… would have saved me hours of brushing… Can’t wait to see updates
How well does the Italeri kit go together?
[:D] looks good so far,keep up the good work.[:D]

Artorius,
Looks good !
Only one comment - more pictures !
Looks good so far. Awaiting the finished product.
I really like that old Italeri kit! You’re doing a great job on it so far.
Looking forward to more pix!
Not only are there fewer wheels, but they are properly lined up end to end rather than being stupidly interleaved and overlapped like those !@#%$%^ stupid $%!&&* Tigers #!&!(()…
sorry about that Tigerman, I’mstill a little jittery over the waning hours of Mad Tiger Day and wrestling with those !@#$%^ wheel and tracks. [:D]
Hehe. I left mine off.
Craig, that suspension looks like pretty crisp moulding. What is your impression of the kit overall?
Hi all.
Thanx for the comments. Appreciate it. The kit is not bad at all, nice little build. Few seams to fill on the turret side where the two section join but easily remedied. There is some flash to clean up here and there but its not that bad. The suspension is rather nice and crisp with a small seam where the two pieces join together. The only thing about the kit is that the trax are quite stiff and it tends to pull up the front roadwheel so that will hav to be remedied.
Here is the latest on the build.
Hand painted with Humbrol Olive Drab. Tell me if u think it needs a another coat. Bit of a funny pic but will get better ones for the finished build.
Plaese tell me what u think every1.
Thanx all.
Keep well.
Craig
