Like this build , its good to have a description and info about buying the aftermarket parts. Not really a sherman fan because if i was it would cost a fortune getting hooked into building all the different versions.

Thank you :)

I tend to stick to the Tamiya HVSS Sherman’s, meaning there are less to make ;)

All the usual exemplary attention to detail, Adam!. I'm especially impressed with the waterproofing shroud you've put on the Mantlet.
:thumbup: Tom also did a great job of putting one on his Centurion. All I can say is, you won't catch me attempting one on the Comet. :D

Thank you both :)

I’m debating adding this one to my lists of for sale - the cast hull one that is.
