Hi All,
Here's a few pics of my Fury build so far. I have replaced the turret roof and fitted the correct loaders hatch and also fitted a new comanders Coppola from a HL turret. Brian...

Hi Brian,
Did you use the Tamiya M4 as a base for this?
Also, what did you use for the turret & rear deck?
Thanks,
Larry

Hi Larry,
Yea Tamiya M4 lower hull,heng long M4A3upper hull unit, Mato M4A1 76mm turret. And tank modelbau 76mm gun tube fitted with a StUG 75mm muzzle break. The turret has the spilt hatch witch is wrong so I removed the turret roof and replaced with plastic sheet and cut it out for the loaders hatch and fitted a commanders hatch from a heng long M4 turret.hope this helps

. Regards,Brian...

Hi Larry,
Looks a nice set

I see it to has the spilt hatch you will have to change that plus the loaders periscope just in front of the hatch with a brush garde over it. Dose the turret kit come with a muzzle brake??.If not the 75mm StUG one is very close!!. Brian...just seen the muzzle break

brain malfunction there I think...

Hi Jeoff,
Thanks yea still a bit to do but almost there. Will order the Decals later still some filling to do on the turret roof and will make the 30cal mount. Got to start getting all the stowage together there's a lot of it on the rear deck got most of it I hope. Ordered the new MIG AMMO paint set that's just come out for the Fury tank you get the paint and wash+pigments Price £16.00 not bad I think.Brian...
