Marc,
Thanks for posting. Always good to see different photos of same dios as see something different each time.

I have also used the Granny in a display with the weeing Brit as adds a bit of humour to the scene.

Thanks.

Nice pictures of some very nice releases. Any sherman fans know why the two sets of numbers on the gun mantlet have one upside down and one the correct way Is this something that the E8 had and why?

Brett, I had a bit of a laugh.....at first. And then I thought of what would happen if a guy really did expose himself like that. Yeah yeah, I've read all the posts from forumites about not applying current values to historical events, but as usual I have a different opinion, imo human values and decent behaviour haven't changed much over the years.

If you examine a Sherman close up, there are casting numbers/part numbers all over the tank on what seems like every part.



Some of them could be upside down. Like the one on the top of the mantlet in the first photo below and the one to the left of the gun (4) in the second photo.



I'm surprised that detail was added to the model.

Just noticed the Granny and weeing Tommy, she looks like she's about to say, 'Hang on, I've got a picture of Himmler too'!^&grin:wink2:

PS...

In relation to the peeing figure I thought it was not allowed to be shown on the forum Has that been changed as I have a great dio that I would like to show??

Following up on Terry's post, the grille work on the Sherman looks excellent to me. This Sherman looks to be a real good 'un.

Marc, great shots and thanks.

Marc:

How does the CS Sherman look compared to the Honor Bound/Figarti Shermans (size wise)? I CS stopped getting CS because their AFVs are way to big when displayed w/ KC, Figarti, and Honor Bound's.

CS newest Sherman next to Figarti Sherman/Flailer..........Seems OK..Michael

 

[jazzeum]

The color seems a little off on the CS version though.

I repainted, reweathered, and extra stowaged the CS version to make it more K/C like. Michael

Nice job. No insult intended :redface2:

Will you be at Hackensack, by the way, or is that too far to go.
