Hey Guys...

This is my Jumbo Sherman.... my first Sherman... I mostly build German stuff so this was a fun departure. I hope I didn't butcher it too badly... not really knowing the ins and the outs of this tank.

The turret is Tank Workshop's resin and the tracks are AFV. I tried the sea salt whitewash method and am pretty pleased with the results. The snow is Hudson & Allen "Snow" affixed with Future Floor Wax.

Comments and suggestions more than welcome.

I think you went a little overboard with the paint chipping and pigments. It would have warranted painted some time before this. There should be quite a bit of rust for the shape it is in. There is too much dry snow on the running gear.

Jeff-- Great job on the figures. How did you paint the eyes?

I'm liking what I see. Looks like a tank in bad winter weather for sure.

Only thing I can point out is snow and ice on the engine deck and exhaust diffuser. These would be warmer hence wet as opposed to frozen.

I'm shivering now.

Nice work Jeff for a Sherman first timer.

Fig's are great .

No rust is good !!!

Snow is good - but engine deck would have less due to warmth. The ice / snow could be less shiney on the bogies and transmission cover


The weathering is appropriate for an ardennes winter


Keep up the great work !!
