Hi Ben Hall I have some Shermans to show you and never mind about all the Panthers and the Tigers Ill show you how its done mate with Shermans

[Nordsee]

Never seen a Sherman with curly body work!! What Mark was that then?

[airwolf572010]

Mate now you got me there. Its a Matarro Kit and all info came from internet re the colour scheme and actual tank bein as in 1944. Thats all I can help with and you probably its not the firefly the English version, but is a true Sherman
Cheers

very nice is the shell plastic if so did you use a soildering iorn cause if it dosent touch the plastic bit makes it warm and flimsy then you get the shape say a plastic car was simulating a hit to a wall you get a squere or lampost get a pen/pencil thats round and bingo you could also get a scale tiger shell ian press that nose first in to simulate a hit
does itt have a turningf turret?

[airwolf572010]

No Krafty I purchased it as is I think whoever did it simulated something being whatever?
the Turret turns, has engine sound and shoots bb's etc.
I sold that one on ebay now but still have another 2.

the early shermans had cast bodies like the one shown then
It was to labour intensive so they redesigned them with the slab sides
For welding them together quickly
