Fury is the last tank!!

Nick,

That's the same tank you posted in our previous youtube link. It's a weird mishmash of stuff and is probably being used for promotional purposes for the film in France as RON is probably sitting at the Bovington museum in the UK. I think some scenes might've been shot with this tank too because I found a still of it decked out with a filming apparatus attached to the turret/gun area. This tank appears to have the A2 overhang with the continental radial engine deck and the grouser covers. So it was most likely and M4A2E8 at some point that was converted to a radial perhaps due the combination of both shortages of the diesel power plant parts and an abundance of surplus continental engines. I think early Israeli Shermans were almost all initially converted to continentals for the same reason before the Israelis started using modern Diesel engines.

The first video you posted of it the fellas standing around it were speaking French, then you posted a video of the D-Day 70th anniversary celebrations so I'm concluding that this tank is probably in France

Here is a link to the article that featured that photo, just like the tank in your two youtube links, this tank has no mantlet attachment brackets and has a continental engine deck. Note the film crew taking a rest on the engine deck, the picture is about hallway down the page and shows the tank form the right rear with the gun at the 9 o'clock position. Check it out.

Pedro, it looks as though they have used 2/3 different variants for different camera angles and scenes. You maybe right about the tank in France been a promotional mock up, or it could have been used to shoot a scene or two in France. I guess with all these variants it gives us modellers a bit of flexibility in portraying "Fury".

Funny ... The uniforms look as though they've been artistically enhanced by a figure painter!

Almost finished detail painting and weathering, I still need to paint the stowage on the rear which I have made up separate from the model, the wheels (which I have a quickwheels mask for and I need to assemble and paint the tracks. Next is a final clear flat coat and the pigment mud. Thoughts on the pic?

I'll be using Ammo pigments, using the resin acrylic from Mig to build up a considerable layer of mud all over the running gear and lower hull.

I'll add some gloss clear to make the mud on top look "fresh", and use darker colours for that. Il start by layering up with "dried" mud, then add darker fresher mud.

Very interesting thread you got here.

Nick,

Meant to ask you about the markings, are those the ones that came in the kit?

Tomorrow I begin painting all the wheels. I will be using Quickwheel's mask for Tasca's m4a3e8. The colour I'm going to use for the rubber is AK Interactive's "rubber tyres" ak720, and for the olive drab I will be using Tamiya olive drab. Photos will hopefully follow on completion if all goes well.

Nick,

I do have a question about your paint scheme. It seems to me from movie stills that the tank has black on OD camouflage. Are you going to add the black later on?

Nick,

She looks nice like that already. Have you started the crew yet? Which tracks did you end up going with?

Nice job! Just need to add some figures...

Nick, I suppose all 5 figures will be available at October.

Well itnlooks great
anothernthing to makemit much more interesting is some streaking effects and some chipping with a sponge and black brown paint
