Hi,

I have the DML 6255 kit, M4A3 (76)W VVSS Sherman Battle of the Bulge. Since this is my first Allied kit, I have quite a few questions if I am going to model it after Abrams' Thunderbolt VI.

1. What barrel is appropriate for the kit? One with the muzzle brake or the one with the tread protector?
2. Any pictures of this particular tank on the internet?
3. Any other suggested improvements to be done using the base kit without any aftermarket parts?

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

Somebody has posted pictures of a Thunderbolt VI on Track Link. It has the 76 gun without the muzzle break. Have a look at the pictures there and it might give you some ideas of what you might want to do.

Cheers,
