Closing in on completion! Finished painting the 50cal, done some more tidying of the pin wash, some streaking and done the commanders hatch glass. Also started on the stowage, painting and chipping the jerry cans. No rust so far but I might had some on sheet metal bits like the rear stowage and the side stowage bins.

It's looking really good, I'm not a fan of ww2 Shermans but the Israeli ones with the French 105mm and counterweight is a handsome tank.
