Here is a pic of my OOTB Italeri M4A3 Marine wader. I built this a while ago but not for the Sherman Campaign.


Here is my entry into the One of our tanks is better that 10 of yours Campaign. It's an Italeri M4A2 Marine fitted with scratchbuilt wading trunks made from 55 gallon barrels. It's not weathered yet.



Finally a shot of both side by side



Hope you enjoy. More pics here

Impressive! Nice work! The only thing missing is the weathering.

looks real good...

i wish i can do my shermie as good as you, Alan

i'm currently working on my very first shermie (italeri 76 mm) just for the 'one of our tanks' campaign...

i looked for references while building (cos i practically have ZERO knowledge about em) and saw some really nice shermie models (including yours) and damn, do i wanna stock up on shermies..

oh crap.. i dont think i'm getting the shermie fever???
