Actually, don't you have at least one Shermie that didn't make the 'Rail' just recently??

Oh yeah....just remembered. It's the M4A1 with the double thickness plate armour attached to the front glacis that I was also building............

Sorry Treadhead. Initially it was pouring rain when I wanted to take the pics so I took them on the deck planking instead. However once the weather was good enough I retook the pics...

Well then, I see it's taken it's rightful place on the deckrail after all.
Nice job............but it's still missin' about ten bolt heads on dem bogies.......

Ahhh I see. Is that what's taking you so long? So it's the adding of those 10 bolt heads on your Shermans that's holding up your builds??? LOL!

LMAO!!!!!...... :-) :-) :-)
Actually truth be told. It's being the Patriarch of a family of six, and being in my busiest season of the year. That's why (generally) I only drop in to post either early in the day, or late in the day.
I have really been wanting to figure out my new camera as well (need a small tripod too). It's not the best in the world, but it's miles ahead of what I had.
Aside from taking some of the 'Most Wanted' photos, I plan to do a step-by-step photo article on super-detailing Tamiya Sherman bogies. This might be helpful to some of those modeler's out there who might wish to more accurately adorn their Shermies that they display on the deck rail, oops!....eer, I mean't modeling table.....yeah, that's right....modeling table.

Well Treadhead, after doing some kitbashing and increased level of scratchbuilding within the last 6 months I suppose the next step would be to start super detailing with more PE and resin. So far I am having loads of fun just cranking projects Out Of The Box with small mods.
Actually I am having more fun cranking projects Out Of The Box with small mods before YOU do with the same project!!
