Very nice scores Chris! Love all those 56th FG Jugs!!!

Yeah, unlike everyone else who made or makes Sherman’s in 1/35 or 1/32, Tamiya neglected to add the sponson bottoms on the original tooling hulls… but it is a quick easy fix using some sheet styrene.

Happy birthday Kari!

Party like it’s 1999!

You’re gonna like this kit Stuart! It’s a fine weekend project in most cases. But I would suggest using Humbrol 155 Olive Drab, and not Humbrol 66. 66 is the shade used on Vietnam era US Army vehicles, while 155 is much closer to the WWII & Korean War era shade.

Thanks guys! This should be fun. The TIEs come with a stand... the only real challenge that I foresee here will be to get Vader's fighter mounted between and ahead of them.

Thanks Tom.

John, I’ll add the figures and accessories after the 12 hour challenge build is over. I’ll leave a few things removable to allow for the Black Dog set items to be added after the fact.

First class work there John!

A bit of progress on this one during my days off...

Bravo on the awards!
