M4A2 update #3

On the vinegar strokes now........

- engine deck finished

- rear plate finished 

- weld seams updated

Am waiting on a 75mm turret to match up but that's the hull done, will be off to warlord for consideration.

And finally my non-plussed cat.....

M4A2 hull - work in progress #2

Bit more completed on this one. 

- rear exhaust assembly

- direct vision assemblies

- started rear engine deck

- final drive assembly recreated

- attempted weld lines.... Jury is out at moment.

As always comments welcome

Update.....

Am now happier with the weld rendition, should paint up lovely, added the following this evening;

- front tow points

- lifting points all round

- rear plate rivets and track tensioner

I flippin hate Shermans!

They are a rivet counters dream! Have always been a nightmare for me, no matter what you research, there will always be something left for comment. 

Anyway, I need two NZ M4A2 Sherman III  so had a route around and a reread of the excellent "Son of Sherman" book and started hacking a warlord m4a4 around!

Shortened hull, sanded front glasis and modified engine deck 

The warlord m4a3 track set will fit so I think I'm on to a winner! Next up will be the engine deck, the louvres being a particular challenge........

Comments welcome, need all the help I can get with shermans!
