Thanks Lyle!

Me to, I've always liked them.

Can't wait to see your Sherman build.

Thanks Mike!

Thanks Gary - Lordy don't take any notes from me though, I've no idea what I'm doing. It won't be as good as your Bulldog, that much I do know.

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 Carlos - it does seem to ...

Just because you can never have too many builds on the bench at once (I'm taking lessons from Mike), I started this the other day - my first ever Sherman (seen here in the company of my other two current amour builds - all of which I'd like to get completed this year). https://i.postimg.cc/dQrB8rFk/...

Looking very good indeed Carlos, I do like that textured stuff, it works well.

Well done Mike!

Well it was a long time coming but well worth the wait - very nice work indeed Mike, they both look superb!

Can you get gravity fed single actions?

I also have a Neo, although I've only used it the once.

God life's waaaayy too short for that - your combination of the AM and kit parts seems the best solution.
