ORIGINAL: Cruiser133

I would still like the mantlet. I will more than likely go to a servo eventually or beef up the gears and I have the sleeve to fall back on. Did you get my PM? Also, I think those covers are for the Sherman...

Oh! (Ha ha... yeah what a brain fart!) I have had the Sherman on my mind all week (with the M36B1 build) and I have totally lost my mind now. I'll send you the mantlet and you can keep it even if you don't use it.

Daryl USED to print those covers for the Panther (I have them on my Panther) and they look nice so I guess he's the one to contact for it all.



I just bought my second HL Sherman today and it will be the Early M4A3 Low Bustle turret that Nick makes. It's gonna look cool as I wait for the metal gearbox from Hobby Raw fpr the M36B1.

The stock mantlet can be made to look good:

This is DT's sleeve.


Still working on it:







Hmmm... thought I had a finished pic of the Panther mantlet, but next time I will.
