Well... as I do not have already enough projects to be build/finished, and also a lot of finished models too, I was soooo exited by this topic that I decided to buy my first non German Tank ever!
So a few minutes ago, I bought that I Love Kit with the upgrade parts.
This is my first American tank, among my 30 or so German Armour.
I have always been a huge fan of that Sherman in the movie Fury with its wide tracks full of mud and so.
Will take a while before I will start this project, needs alot of research for me because I am not familiar with non German stuff.
When I start with this kit, I would love to make a Fury out of it.
Making it RC would be a great challenge for me either, but it is very tempting I must admit.
As always, when somebody shows his skills in a topic, it looks soooo easy and simple, so I might have alot of questions to you Monsieur Tox....as time comes.....
CU,
Rob.

Hey Rob,

I'm glad you found this thread inspiring. You are falling into the Sherman rabbit hole! 😂
The I Love Kit M4A3E8 is a very good kit and it's not that hard to convert to RC.
I'll be very happy to help answering all the questions you may have about this project!
