Good Morning, Alpha,
It says something about me that my eye was caught more by the excellent paint and details on the Sherman and the hasty 'In The Mood' lettering than by the vinyl figurine. *chuckles* All the work displayed including the Lady is top drawer in my book.

I reckon a smart shot from a KwK43 L71 would go clean through all those neatly arranged turrets & drop out the ohter side like the 'magic bullet'

Good Afternoon,
Loving the results of all the hard work, Alpha. ;o) The wheels are pretty dang sweet. The sand skirts definitely add a dimension to the appearance of the overall vehicle. It is a match for the ones depicted in The Show. Now, as Fynsdad noted, what's next?
