Dale,

With a Shermand, especially a US one you can add so much stowage that you can make the model into what you want. I find models improve so much when the detail starts to go on. Nice webbing and I didn't know that Armorpax made buckles, mine are from wire.

Dale,
Your sherman tools look fantastic. Very professional metal work. I have a question how do you attached the brass to the alum deck? I don't see any screws etc? Great job hiding the attach method!

I agree having two models in process is a headache. One suffers while the other gets built. Your details are inspiring me to get back on my Sherman!
Bob

Thanks Bob . The tie downs are from 'Artesania Latina ' Brass doll house handels . I super glued them in palce then drill and pined with brass model ship round head nails . They should be OK I'm not going to swing on them .. The shovel is from my 1/6 scale willys jeep . The kit one was the wrong shape and to flat . Dale
