Jezebel stickers arrived - she’s finished. No weathering, owner wants her as newly restored.

Beautiful Sherman!
Your attention to detail has paid great dividends in a very impressive model, reality in miniature.

A great thread for Shermanophiles, Adam

Beautiful work, done with great affection. I must point out, however, that your very last pic shows the need for a smoke unit in Tamiya Tanks! Evidently, this one's burning quite a bit of oil, but if modern vehicles can't keep their emissions down, it's reasonable to assume that WW2 armour was pretty smoky- whether diesel (T34) or petrol...

It’s a Cummins diesel in the Israeli modified M51 Sherman so a bit of smoke and a lot of poke is fine
