Very tastefully done, Adam- as usual :clap: :
BTW,Highland weather is seldom suitable for painting until about April/May. It's frustrating. At least you're getting a surprise 18c ( :O ) down south lately. ;)

I don't think anyone can say that Shermans are boring after seeing that picture. Great looking fleet.

Commanders .30 cal added.

Primed the hull outside today as the weather was great.

Should have a painted lower hull end of the week.

My friend has a real Sherman with the same mantlet and cover -
I copied it directly from this - bits of plasticard and an old hanky!
