Hello everyone. I am an RC tank addict

[Jimster]

So sorry for your loss! My mother is in a dementia facility and on hospice. The iron tongue of time tolls the hour.
Anyhoos, do you have any videos of your models?

[MrChef]

Soooo I guess we'll call you Sean the Sherman guy!

Welcome officially to the forum.

Pics please? Oh and outdoors action shots preferred.

[Ecam]

I, too, worked in a hobby store, but that was over 50 years ago.

Back then it was just sticks and rocks, right?

Welcome aboard sberwick. I too have a Sherman fetish, though I am a little more balanced with other tanks too.

And like the others, I'd love too see some pictures of your fleet!

[sberwick]

the currant Tank I am working on is a hooben sherman I am converting to a Fury sherman, it was the basic hooben not the deluxe. So I had to do some major hull/turret mods and 3d printed all the stowage.

Looks mean and ready to rumble. I thought it would be more green looking but I’m not as educated on allied armor.

[Ecam]

Looks terrific! Great Sherman.

[Herr Dr. Professor]

That is, indeed, a mean looking HVSS Sherman. Is it gray?

its Sherman green with the black stripes. it has a dirt and mud wash on it like in the movie. its actually not as harsh. but the flash makes it look grey. I will try to take more without the flash

sberwick: I thought the flash might have caused that color effect. I have seen the same gray effect in published books photos of Olive Drab museum AFVs. I applaud the straps you created to make the stowage look realistically attached: how did you do that?

I purchased some 1/16 and 1/8 khaki colored ribbon off ebay, and glued them to the packs.
