Hi. I used to do a lot of 1/48 but eventually found them too restricted. Anyway, Tamiya's Shermans are not bad, but only make the M4 and M4A1. With appropriate AM parts and PE from Hauler and Iron Division/Tank Workshop, etc, a very nice miniature can be made. Tamiya's lower hulls on most of their models are metal and simplified which turn off a lot of modelers. But thanks to Iron Division/Tank Workshop much better detailed resin lower hulls are avaialble, as well as other replacement parts.
