Many thanks for the kind words....... almost forgot I've to knock up some padlocks & retaining pins for the side lockers, and maybe a little rusting on the bottom of the jerry can stowages. So, sorry more to follow tomorrow.

Many thanks Happytank, always nice to hear comments.

Did a little weathering, and that’s her finished. Sorry but the lightning is pretty poor, non the less I’ve enjoyed converting her, and she’s come along way.

As mentioned she’s not accurate but IMHO a fair and interesting representation of a fictional IDF M50-51

Hope you’ve enjoyed viewing her.

Great result. I wonder if you would do an outside shot against the sky, i would think it would look like a real vehicle,

Adlav & soeren your too kind, thank you.

Just noticed I haven’t re-secured the tarps on the stern, I’d originally used cotton and decided to change it, they look a bit odd just plonked there. Also have to do the padlocks on lockers and turret medic box. Do we ever truly finish a model, or just get to a stage where we think it’s done......... bet you can all identify with that.

For sure, I can take some images on the skyline, however they’ll just be snaps from my phone and hosted in very low res afraid, photography is not my thing. Unfortunately I’m a bit busy this weekend so, may not be until Monday.

Blimey, just thought I’d remind myself of my IDF Sherman build, and most of the build images have deleted when I removed them from my photo share library, didn’t realise that. Sorry, I’ll try and reinstate some images over the weekend.

Gary.
