Hi Gang,

Here's my entry for the Mud, sweat and gears campaign.
It's the old Italeri Sherman recovery vehicle, built OOB.
Any comments are welcome!!

John.

Looks good John. Maybe a bit clean for a recovery vehicle, but it's nice for a change. Shows your skills and effort.
Is that a mortar, stowed on the front of the hull?

Groeten
Henk

Like it, the paint work is just nicely faded and subtly executed on top of a neat build job.

OOTB ? Those aren't the tracks that come with my italeri M32

Anyway, very nice build! Looks great to me!

@ Martinnn,

You're right, the tracks are not from the original kit....you trapped me on that one!! But all the rest is straight OOTB!!

Looks good to me. The tracks had me fooled as well for a while.

Yes that's a Mortar on the front. They were used ( I believe) for laying down smoke.
