IDF Sherman

Post by dabber »

Got my hands on a Mato cast hull and T23 turret from a mate, she was built as an easy 8 on a Tamiya HVSS tub. As nice as she was I decided to convert her to the above.

So far so good, with a lltle scratch building and new parts purchased she’s nearly ready for paint

I’m using a Elmod fusion pro board, with servo controlled recoil and elevation.

When I fathom out how to post pictures ill get some up. Now, shes not strictly accurate or representative of a specific tank with loads of modellers license, not up to the usual standard as on here however I like her so far

Great thing with IDF Shermans is a great deal of modellers license makes a great tank, no two were the same so happy days! I've done an m50 and m51 and planning two more chillean m51s and an m50(M60) interchangeable top for one.

Tapatalk works fine - load images in small setting and direct from the phone.
