M51 Sherman
M51 Sherman
Well, I wasn’t expecting to be back into tanks but I have rescued a Tamiya M51 Sherman from a friend of a friend.
I have been busy working on the M51 over the last couple of weeks.
Tonight see’s her back together after new parts and primer/re paint.
Lots still to do.
How she arrived.
After getting some parts printed from a friend.
Primed and painted, back together.
The inspiration.

Very cool Nice work. I've never been a fan of the Sherman but I'm developing a soft spot for the M50 & M51.

Some detail painting and a pin wash added.
Also dry brushed the tracks as they were a little too red oxide for my liking.

Great Sherman. Good call on turning down the volume on those tracks. Much more better now.
