I have a proper 27mhz Sherman that still looks just as it did when I got it out of the box. I would like to give it a British set of markings but have no idea what they are. Could you give me some ideas please.

You could begin with these, and then the real Shermanophiles on here will point you in many other directions..

Oh, and our esteemed long suffering vendor, Forgebear (Dave) has decals for the Desert Rats listed, but they're currently out of stock..

Thanks for the information the desert rat logo is attractive. Has anyone got some transfers they don't need?

Did you check out Forgebears Firefly and other Shermans decal set? You can make like 20 or 30 different tank combinations off the one sheet! These are D Day divisions shown which would be good for an A3...

Glad to help. I make these for Uncle Dave and they are really nice decals, easy to work with and unlike some of the main stream guys who only give you one choice per decal you can do multiple vechicles with tons of choices...

You are most welcome! They are the best deal out there for sure. And all the new decals Dave has do the same thing. You can make more that one vehicle out of them even the IDF decals!

I am very impressed by the transfers and the information sheets unexpectedly supplied with it really helped my choice of what to put on my Sherman and also a repainted wpl truck. I recommend these to anyone.
