Modifying a Sherman

Post by aikmanmosquito »

I've just purchased a basic Heng Long Sherman with the intention of modifying it. Now I'm fairly new to this hobby, although I do model considerably in 1:35. How far can I go with this tank, will any of the metal parts I see fit this, I'm looking for a well detailed 50cal, but don't know if any one makes one, are there update sets similar to those available in 1:35 for the Sherman? Any help will be appreciated.

This is the most detailed 50 Cal. available. I have several and they are awesome.

You can buy the tamiya sprue with it on from axels modellbau. I would say it's not far off the afv detail wise and a lot cheaper!
