Sherman re-fit
I was asked by Mart (ex-pat) to cast him up a couple of early mantlets for some of his future projects, so while I had the resin out I thought I'd do one for my M4a3...well it would be rude not to
...got it fitted and just needs a bit of filler and paint....

It's nice to see an early gun mantlet, there aren't many models around representing the early Shermans. I really like the prototype Sherman with the side by side fixed mgs in the glacis.

NICE work! 
The early M34 arrangements are pretty interesting for sure.

Funny.
But I already have that mantlet (Nicks) AND also a 105MM gun to stick in my Kelly's Heroes M3 halftrack too, making it a T19 'wanna-be'. 'Tanks' anyway!

Sure it is, it's in resin and he poured it.
It's not the FOV part or that would be in metal.

I'm sorry, but that is incorrect.
I have both the Profiline M4A1/turret kit and Nick's offering and they are not alike or the same in any manner.

Nicks on the right, Profiline on the left.

RE: Sherman re-fit
Indeed you are correct, the Profiline is on the left.
Anyway, thanks for posting that - I wasn't sure if Nick's part would be equally as suitable for my purposes, but I can see the Profiline one is a better start point for where I am headed.
