I managed to temporarily take the Sherman off the "shelf of shame" by completing the turret mechanisms. Servo recoil from Taigen and barrel smoke from Heng Long.

Nice work Kaczor. I'm a barrel recoil, smoke, flash addict now.

In the meantime, my friend is helping me make the fenders . I suck at soldering and sometimes as a favor, for example for painting the figures, he makes me various metal parts. it turned out that the original ones have to be removed if you want to marry the Taigen tub to the Mato hull.

It must be the combination of LED and barrel smoke: the level is realism is eerie!
