Hello Paulo

I think I may have to join in I have found a decal sheet that has markings for M4 Shermans and M3 Stuarts Do you know if those tanks were painted in U.S. olive drab?

Hello Chad!

Portuguese or Brazilian?
If it is portuguese, I'll bring (tomorrow) some pics of the real stuff and post them here!
But I can say in advance, that they are OD - several shades of OD!!!!

If they are portuguese (the decals) which brand and scale are they?

Thanks (also)

Yes you did Paulo Sadly some paint got spilled onto it But I am glad that you did send that magazine to me Always good to see another Allied contribution to the war effort during W.W. 2

Decalmaniacs has a new set of Brazilian armor decals for W.W. 2 stuff as well as post war armor for Brazil Here's a link to the story Jimbrae did on it

I see that they have decals for the M24 Chaffe and M47 Patton in Portogese service Seeing as how I have an M47 Patton I guess I'll go with those type of markings

What I would like to built some day, are figures of capoeira fighters They are not Armed Forces :-). I train capoeira, and I think that showing energy of capoeira in static model would be very difficult and challenging.
