Beautiful work, Adam. Love those brackets!! The whole tank just hangs together so nicely. Keep it up.

Adam is this the famous Isherman ? Does this version have the French 75mm gun or the larger gun version? Just curious

Got it. The m50 had the French version of the 75mm Panther gun correct? What I like about all these unique tanks is the history associated with the model

Exactly - they modified a lot of Sherman's before switching to centurions.
