I have added the a tow cable, spare tracks and a wooden shelf between the front fenders. I have also started on the turret crew. The crew is from the new Sherman tank crew from Tamiya.
Oh yeah - that Sherman is lookin’ realy good!
Good luck with your build and have a nice day

Thank you Pawel!
Really beautiful work. Those hand tools are excellent.
Thank you Glenn!
You may be bored with me saying this over and over but she’s coming along great!
Not at all! Your comments encourage me to keep going.
Thanks!
Here is a stowage update. The flat coat has not been added yet.
[:)]
Turret is loaded and flat coat applied.

[:P]I really like what I’m seeing here…can’t wait to see those figs painted up…are those Dragon???
The figures are from Tamiya.
Thanks!
More stowage details added plus some decals. I still need to put on some flat coat, but slowly but surely I’m getting things loaded up.

She’s looking fantastic, love the fabric look you’ve got going on the storage bags. [ht]
Thanks! and thanks for stopping by.
I have been working on the 50 cal today. I replaced the Tamiya one with one from a Hobby Boss kit. Even so there are some things you can do to make it look better. The simple thing to do is drill out some of things like the barrel, the forward site, and the cooling sleeve. Painted it Model Master Exhaust first. Dry brushed with Model Master Gunmetal and silver. Didn’t turn out too bad.

One thing about bad weather it allows for bench time. I have started to paint the crew figures and I am still adding stowage here and there. I’m nearing the finish line on this one.

That’s a fine looking Sherman, Terry.
[Y] Fantastic work on the TC! Everything else looks top notch as well!
Thanks for the comments guys!
Ok I’m calling this one done for now. I have added a second crew figure and another piece of stowage. I have added the last few parts (headlight lens, tail lights, and antenna. Did some paint touch up here and there. Now I will set it aside and look at it for a while and try and see any errors. But in the mean time here are the finished pictures. Thanks for following along.
