Figured I'd post my latest batch of builds... This isn't everything either, just a smattering. Not pictured are my Kengi M8HMC, M3GMC (converting to M16A1 AA halftrack)and my Bandai M3 halftrack (converting to M15A1 AA halftrack).

So, left to right, we've got the Tamiya Firefly Ic kit built as an early M4 (I wanted a Sherman and this was the only kit the LHS had); HobbyBoss M4A1 (76); M36B2 (Tamiya M10 hull with Gaso.line M36 turret); M4A3 Late 75mm, Bandai hull and interior, HobbyBoss turret, Bandai turret interior, mix of HobbyBoss and Tamiya wheels; Tamiya M8 Greyhound; Monogram M1 Cletrac with tons of scratchbuilt details; Tamiya M26 Pershing.




I'll see about getting some closeups of each of them up this evening.

Hi Jon, that's a lot of building going on. The Pershing looks ready to get finished - nice decal work

Thanks Greg!

I built "Fireball" as it appeared after it was rebuilt, with the gouge from the 88 shell still present on the upper right side of the turret. Decals went on well, but as I was about to flat coat and weather it, I realized that the turret seam was still visible. Super glue and sanding has since commenced and it's almost there. Should have it done soon.

An impressive output Greg! I've got three Hobbyboss Shermans arriving soon and I'm looking foward to tackling them as I haven't built much US stuff at all.

Brent,

That M4A1 is my second HB Sherman and I'm very happy with both of them. Sure, there's stuff that needs to be adjusted but overall, they're good little kits. I'm looking forward to the Easy 8 soon and from what I know that's the one that needs the most correction as the bogey trucks are too short in height.

I should have more pics up this evening.

Jon

Nice work!

Is it possible to see more photos of the cletrack work?

Happy modeling!

Wow, nice collection. Thanks for showing them together like that. I had not realized how large the Pershing is next to the Sherman.

Happy Modeling, -zon

Very true about the Sherman's size vs the Pershing!

The HB 76 mm gun barrel has no taper and should have one of the many cheap AM metal barrels instead (the HB T-34/85 plastic gun barrel will do if you have one to spare).

We need closer pictures of that Cletrac!
