Hi all-
Does anyone know if there are any resin Sherman Jumbo turrets? I think a gentleman by the name of Nick Aguilar used to make them. I think I can scratch build one if I have to, but with all the subtle curves, it may be tricky.
Thanks,
Matt

Re: Sherman Jumbo Turret
Nick still makes them to the best of my knowledge, I bought a couple of his early 75mm turrets fairly recently so I think he's still in the game even if he's not actively building tanks any more
Re: Sherman Jumbo Turret
If you do a search for Nick's name on this forum you should be able to find a thread with his email address. I used his jumbo parts for mine and it is a great kit.

And shipping will be cheaper for you in the states, and you won't get stung with import duties like us Brits

Re: Sherman Jumbo Turret
I was going to used the mato turret when I do one and just change the barrel and maybe make the mantlet a little better, but yeah Ludwig does the kit. Which I believe has the turret with metal bits and the armour plates for the hull, again with metal bits
It’s your tank it’s what you make it

Re: Sherman Jumbo Turret
Could one of our experienced forum members use their 3D wizardry and print one? Or possibly a kit?

Re: Sherman Jumbo Turret
Picked this Jumbo up used alittle while ago part of a group buy. Already have a Easy8 upper hull and turret coming to me and will not be using these. Its in a bit of rough shape and needs more TLC that I'm able to provide. I'm not sure who was the manufacturer though.
