Does anybody know if there is a webshop in the European Union where separate Asuka sprues can be ordered?

Finished assembling the bogies. Always nice to have 6 bogies assembled considering the amount of parts per bogie.

Added the bogies and put the both hull parts together. It's dry fit. But it shows that this Firefly is coming together nicely.

The Firefly has got it's base color. It's Tamiya olive green made lighter with Tamiya lemon yellow. When I'm done wheatering the tank will have a darker tone. I've started with chipping before adding washes and drybrushes. This time I've used chipping medium of Vallejo. It's the first time I'm using it. The Sherman got 2 layers of grey, dark and light, and the olive green color. After each grey layer I applied a layer of chipping medium. In the tutorial I've watched it looked pretty easy, in reality I found it quite challenging. On some spots more green paint came off then intended. Clearly I need to find my way with this technique.

Started painting the details and adding decals. Always brings a model to life.

The first figure is done. It's the driver. Concentrated on the head, collar and shoulders. More isn't visible when placed in the Firefly.

Added pics of the wheatering process of the Firefly. The hull is pretty much on the way, the turret is still quite clean. Added a black pin wash to the hull, turret and stowage and a drybrush to the hull. Obviously work in progress. The drybrush looks a bit harsh but is more subtle than on the pictures due to the lighting.

Thanks! The Sherman is nearing it's completion just as the figures in the turret. Also finished the road sign.

Finished the crucifix. After painting it with the base color, I've added several drybrushes.

Very appealing diorama with good layout showing the communication of the soldiers!
