With Formations Models trying to keep up with demand, they continue to release must-haves for the Sherman boys, and the Modern AFV squads. Great subjects and detail are becoming their calling card in the modelling world.
Here's what we are looking at from the Formations resin forges...

Converts Trumpeter M1117 Guardian kit #01541 to the M1200 Armored Knight target designating vehicle. Includes complete target aquisition turret, communication and GPS antennas.

Kit # F129 M4 Sherman Small Hatch Composite Conversion -$45

Converts Tasca M4A1 kit 35-022 to the rare M4 Small Hatch Composite. Parts can be used with other Sherman kits with minor modification. Includes upper hull, hull hatches, late low bustle turret shell, and fenders used in the remanufacturing process.

Sean I am still waiting on some CAD design? It seems as if you have blown me off? Mrosko

No, I haven't blow you off at all Chris. It's hard to find time with my research and bike racing. I am doing manufacturing work next semester which involves all the Rapid prototyping methods, including SLS, or Selective Laser Sintering. I will be able to give you some updates come late January.
