Howdy. A nice Firefly. It's a pity that they are hard to get by nowaday's. Dragon should really update this one.

very good effort, the firefly has got to be the best of all the Sherman kits, i like it .

Hey Jan,
Nicely done !!
DML's has supposedly got one in the works, #6228, page #7 in their 2007 catalog.
FYI - it was also listed in their 2006 and 2005 catalogs so it may be some time until we see it !!
Mind you, with all their new Sherman kits, we may see a new Firefly from DML sooner than later.
Cheers

Hi Jan,

Nice work, looks excellent. Nice to see a Polish Tank.

With the Tasca Kit being the best around I doubt if we will see another VC fron Dragon but you never know. They have had the IC Hybrid as coming for a long long time.

Keep em coming

Hello Jan: Something you might want to try to improve is the silvering behind the decals. Maybe make some pin prick holes and brush inside some Future/Kleer? Nice to see your Firefly!

Thanks Roy. I know, especially on this tank I had enormously problem with the decals. I'm gonna try your idea.

As said, the kit is scheduled to be revamped and reissued sometime soon, and a composite hull M4 is supposed to be released as well (same hull, and they already have molds for the 1943 75 mm turret) . Dragon's Firefly IC was re-released not too long ago, and this boxing inherited the new Firefly turret and improved suspension from the most recent VC kit, though the overtextured hull was unchanged (Tamiya putty to the rescue).

Thank for the update.
