Hi all.
It's been a while since I updated this thread so I thought it about time I showed what I've been doing on my sherman.
I managed to remove the gun mantlet from the turret and decided to add some detail to it.
Back on the upper hull added more detail by drilling sand shield fixings and seperated the fenders.I did not cut right through,just scored the surface.
Scored the front fenders also to make them look seperate and added bolt heads.
The transmission casings is a detail that is lacking on the sherman so I thought I'd have a go at making them.When looking at the front of the sherman the drive shafts are quite visible,this will hide them and adds a bit of detail to an otherwise flat area on the model.
You can see on the last picture how it will hide the shaft.They are not an exact replica but they are hard to see anyway.It will be interesting to see how it holds up when running the tank.
Thats all for now.
Cheers all.
