What a beautiful job it is too Mark. Love the colour decolourisation and the dust. I really like the stowage too. Very nice

Great work and excellent Paint job & weathering 👍
The only drawback in my opinion, would be the lack of sag on the tracks close to the rear idler wheel 🤔 but I could be wrong.

Thank you Mr James, CaptGPF, Rui S and Mikel. Thank you for the compliments. Rui, yep I noticed that and as I took the snaps going through my mind was " Yer daft owld DUFFER you forgot the sag π€£" Mikel. I'm only going on experience of operating tracked vehicles (360 excavator's) from the initial track pull yes no sag, but over time and operation link's loosen up, idlers sag, weight of mud etc cause a slight sag. Plus the way I operate them, crash, bang, wallop style π€£π€π₯Έπ€π€£ππ₯Έ. Thank you all for the likes too.

Hi Gary, thanks for the compliment. The kit came with three figures recent Tamiya mouldings, which I will paint up at a later date and after I've re-modded the Sherman. I am contemplating a vignette (start small) as I've never done dio's etc, before. π€π₯Έπ

Well done, turned out better than my one,is it going on a vignette?

That was the plan Gary, I've misplaced the infantrymen, I need to rejig the ropes on the stowage (they do not look convincing to me) and find suitable ref photos for said vignette. But then I got sidetracked by the PzIII and the Attacker. π€¨π
