I have not had much time this Spring to work on the tanks. However I did get some time in the past week to get the M36 a bit closer to weathering and final details. Third picture shows the care package sent by my brother. I guess he thought my 3" and 90mm needed some help.

Re: Eric's HL M4A3/M10A1
Good afternoon,
It never hurts! That's a very cool Care Package from Mike and will give you a ton of modeling fun. ;o) You really have picked up the Sherminator mantle, Eric. I'll be following along.
regards,
Painless

Re: Eric's HL M4A3/M10A1
Yes I will start another build thread in "Other Builds", but I wanted to show the cuts made for the M4A4. I measured the bogie centers and I am still doing the math on the stretch...I think it works out to 5/16". My cuts are rough and not cleaned up yet, but cut to fit fillers will get things straight.
With the spare links that come with each tank (I'm up to four of these) I should have plenty to work with.

Finding time to work on tanks in the summer in Colorado can be tricky. Got some paint on my VC. Tweaked the bustle on the turret a bit. When time permits, I'll get to weathering.
