I seem to be having a devil of a time finding online references for the M4A3E8. I'm building Hasegawa's 1/72 kit and would like to add a little detail to it, but being an occasional armor modeler don't have any references at home. I'm sure there's dozens of sites concerning the Sherman, but I'm having trouble locating them.

Any hints or suggestions out there?

Phantom, our kind member TUGA has made a very nice collection of Sherman references for us all.
You can sift through them here: Sherman Tanks

Hi,

Thanks to all for your kind words.

When I have checked the list I realized that I've done a terrible fault - I haven't included the site of Shermanfreak, one of our mates here at AA, so I have corrected the situation and added it to the list.

My sincere apologies to Shermanfreak.

For Shermans in Braille scale I would recommend Doug Chaltry's site:
