I know less than nothing about Sherman's other than they're Green.

I like that you're DIY and using found stuff. Nice work.

Yes but you are learning and affected!

Ok, Here are some updates. New OD color, trimmed down barrel spoked bogie wheels. then weathered tracks. It , now has a good base coat to start the weathering.

You HAVE to do the loudspeaker!!!
Thats an iconic movie prop thats synonymous with the Oddball Sherman..................
Great job on a very well known Tank

I will answer this the only way that's proper in this instance. " Have a little faith baby, have a little faith".

Ok fellas, it's now taking shape. I got the 3D printed pieces , assembled and painted them. Only the loud speaker is mounted.

I believe someone has produced a set of figures for the Oddball theme some time ago.

No worries baby. I got Oddball, Moriority, and the Turk coming. I had to lose the fancy Speaker mount. They just bolted it to a Pre existing spare track mount bracket. So, I did that instead. Now I can start modifying the color and weathering it.

Ok, Now this is the look I'm going for. I'll add more weathering and dust to it when the decals arrive.

Good looking Sherman
