He knows about the guide horns Jeff but I'm surprised you didn't catch the sprockets too.

Looks great. I cannot do better even with my skills.
but do you know you have the wrong tracks mounted as spares on the glacis? Those are VVSS tracks and wont fit Fury. Were you short the right kind to use for spares?

Wow frank, I did not catch that detail. Good call.
Stupid movie people making mistakes like that. I would have slapped a section of hvss track there and not even noticed Fury had vvss laying on it in the movie.
Holywood prop designers do what looks good, not what is correct. I have friends that rent to studios, and specifically the last Indiana Jones moive he had all the vehicles painted up correctly for the set designers and they looked at them and said, but we want them to look like this. They showed him a picture of IDF jeeps. He told them the HUGE difference but they instead repaited his vehciles for him.

These tracks were the most close to the tracks from the movie. I know about the guide horns, but the Impact has only these.

It was enjoyable to view your work. Thanks for posting.

Impact appears to sell sets for Pershings and Shermans...that's why I asked. Regardless, you have a set of Pershings. For added realism, you might consider taking your old pair of Sherman tracks, and swapping the guide horns out with the Pershing tracks. It likely would work, but would be tedious.

If one digs deeper you will see they are selling the SAME TRACK SET for BOTH tanks... same #number so there is no separate part to get they, are both the same guide teeth.
Been there saw that.
Besides... pulling 4 tracks apart to change out the guide horn would be pretty tedious at best.
