Ok Boys. Here it is, all finished. It seemed like an eternity waiting for all the various parts to show up.

Re: My Oddball Sherman.
As I learned to say from my Minnesota friends: "What a hoot!" Now for fun I have to go back to see the parts of the movie with the Sherman in it again. There is one mystery: why is Donald Sutherland still in the tank? I would think he would be out with those Panzermädchen working on his vibes.

Have a little faith baby. He's on his way. This was a labor of love for me. I really love how it came out.Herr Dr. Professor wrote: ↑Sun Feb 04, 2024 2:59 am As I learned to say from my Minnesota friends: "What a hoot!"

Re: My Oddball Sherman.
The barrel is the from "toucan hobbies" on Ebay. It's a cut down and modified metal HL barrel from the " Fury" Sherman. I had to make the muzzle ring on the end. The Decals came from Company B miniatures. You'll have to contact Bruce to custom make your size. https://company-b-models-and-miniatures ... 239b&_ss=r

Re: My Oddball Sherman.
I agree, airmancurran1, that Sherman must have been fun to create 'cause it sure is fun in the photos. I like it! I get a kick out of the stowage hanging down next to the tracks. It's the vibes that keeps it from tearing to bits.
