Fortunately for me as a lot of my Sherman’s are British conversions I find a number of uk Sherman’s had them as did a number of the later a3s in Europe
It’s your tank it’s what you make it

This is coming along nicely Estnische :clap: on the earlier subject of the tracks I also used a set of the T49 tracks ( without duckbills ) on my desert Sherman and modified them to look like a set of the T41 tracks using black milliput to represent the rubber pads, time consuming but I think they turned out ok in the end :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee. ImageImageImage

Thank you Carl, it took a good few hours to complete both tracks but I'm happy with the effect they give of the rubber track pads :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

I'm enjoying the ride! I see some typically refined handiwork there, Brett, presented- as ever- in beautifully composed, and captured, photos. :clap:

Thanks for the praise gents.

I appreciate seeing details in photos of other people's builds and I have the camera gear, so I try to capture what I do step by step. It's hard to remember to do it sometimes, but there are no other chronicles for our hobby such as magazines, and very few Youtubers.
