The Official Armortek Forum - World leader in one sixth scale metal kits

Hi starting to find my way around the forum. I,m staggered by the amount of knowledge forum members impart to others, thank you!
I thought I knew a lot about the Sherman tank, accumulated over the last 45 (or so) years , with all the books I have collected and the models I have made. But then you find something special........
I have just purchased a copy of 'SHERMAN FIREFLY' by Mark Hayward, wow, what a book, what a piece of research!
I don't envy the person who does the research for the Armortek models, the breadth of variation in the Sherman in particular is vast .
Regards to all

I agree the Hayward Firefly book is probably going to be the standard reference for this kit.

I like the Concord books for stowage pictures etc, especially as they do the different theatres as well.

I ordered this book and recieved it in one week via airmail.
It is a great book resource, VC Firefly, almost all pictures.
I have a Firefly on order and it will be my first Armortek build.

Happy Builder

Hi
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of SHERMAN VC FIREFLY in the Armor Photogallery series?

Regards
John

It's like rocking horse droppings I'm afraid.

I managed to get a copy of the IC photo gallery book from a dealer at Tankfest but I've never seen a copy of the VC book available anywhere

Adrian.

Thanks Adrian

You have confirmed, what I have thought. Non of the military book suppliers have had a copy for a long time.
Just thought a forum member might part with a copy, if I cross their palm with silver ( or gold! ).

Regards
John

i would have thought adrian would have photo copied it for you !!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately there are laws preventing that

Not to mention the fact that I don't have a copy either
