Mike, you call that big? 1/16 is big - this is madness

BTW: I hope to present my finished entry this weekend.

And I already find it hard to find space for my 1/16s

1/6 is a nice scale, very strong and so very suitable for RC....but I prefer 1/16 somehow. Gives me more the feeling I'm still working on a scale model perhaps

Ok ok.....and I also can't afford 1/6th

Found these on Ebay last night. Stamped brass return skids from Lionmark for 4.50 a set.
I have no stake in this auction just thought I'd spread the word.

Hi, here are my 5 cents (finally ):





I've also uploaded some pics to the campaign gallery.

Please don't be too cruel - it's my first Sherman and my first water effect diorama.

I want my ribbon! Gimme gimme gimme!!!

Marcin, thanks a lot for a great campaign (another one)!

Andrzej

Looks good to me.

Andreji like the beach and water effect tank looks great also

Very nice addition to the Campaign Andrzej !

Well Saturday's mail came and went with no package from Formations Now this is no reflection on their service, just a reflection on my impatience So I knew I had some of their return skids in an M4 early kit so I borrowed them and will replace them with a set from my latest order but I went ahead and built my own fenders so I could finish.


If you're wondering about the color of my sheet plastic it's because "for sale" signs are much cheaper and readily available than the sheet plastic sold exclusively for use in the moddeling community and I am a cheapskate and the finished product

@ Jeff, Keith, Mike - thanks for kind words!

@ Mike - I really like your entry. I'm a Sherman newbie, so I'm still learning about making these. Your Sherman is something to learn from for sure.

Andrzej

Andrzej & Mike: Nice Shermans!

Some painting, fading and filter progress on my Sherman in my WIP thread.

M4A3 105 HVSS

Tamiya 1/48 M4

Wow, great Shermans guys. I had started this one a while ago and was building as an American but changed to a New Zealand vehicle in Italy. Dozer kit from Trakz. Light mud (White Ensign) and Blue/Black (Tamiya) camo with dozer left OD. Decals from Bison. Storage from various sources. Weathered using oils and pigments.
Thought it would fit in this campaign nicely.
