After 25 years off I have fallen in love with modeling again. Shermans mainly. I love all of your work but have a quick question. The ammo boxes 30 and 50 or even 75's What is the base color! I've seen wood and I've seen OD. Does it matter or do what feels best!!
Thanks to all - Dr Bob

You could post it in the main AFV forum and you'll get a near-instant answer. Make sure you get the new M4A3E8 Thunderbolt from DML if you like shermans
