william wiseI got this kit because the Tasca Sherman V is just to expensive but after opening the kit i ended up spending about as much on aftermarket stuff i should have just bought the Tasca kit most of the build is about done except the smoke candles on the turret sides and the Bronco tracks, if anybody hasn't used Bronco tracks be prepared to embrace the suck, not that their bad just really, really, really tedious

Alan RushLooks nice William. I recently bought the M4A4 with 60 lb. rockets and it is this kit with the printed instructions for this kit with a small bag and instructions to attach the rockets. I could not find your kit so went on the LHS advice to buy the one I have. I will follow to see how it turns out for you. What aftermarket kits did you buy. I am thinking about the Eduard set.

william wiseHi Alan, i am using the Resicast bomb thrower and smoke mortars, I also used Resicast telephone boxes and first aid boxes, i also used the Verlinden Sherman update set and Tank Work Shop Sherman tools with some sprinkling from the spare parts box, mostly left over Tasca stuff and also Bronco tracks the most pressing problem with the Kit besides soft detail is the road wheels they need replacing along with the idler wheel and sprocket which i didn't do but really should be done

M.Julian MarlesWell it looks pretty nice! This old DML - the hull is Italeri in origin?

william wiseI'm calling this one done need to add some stowage on the rear deck but for now I'm sticking a fork in it really enjoyed doing the research for WWII British marking systems pretty complicated but i got a basic understanding now thou, still dont understand how units are assigned numbers as not all divisions have the same numbering system.
