[Burdzin]

Hi,

I'd like to present my last work , some pics of Tamiya's M4 convert in to M4A2 Sherman from Polish 4th Armoured Regiment "Scorpion". The base kit is Tamiya M4 early. For upgrade to M4A2 version. I used conversion kit from “Toro Models”, photoedch from Aber, transmission cover, antennas and sponson fillers from “Formations”, some parts from Dragon Firefly and also TigerModels cupola. Work is still in progress:

Impressive.

Love the work on the volute suspension---well detailed and cleanly done also! The pe on the interior hatches looks like it was trickey to fold and apply---very very precisely down here. Your conversions on the front glacis plate/hull came out just great. I love looking at mixed media builds---solid all the way.

Keep us posted as you move through the build, and thanks for these pics.

Fantastic job so far How easy was the new engine deck to put in? Did it require any major modifications?

Thx.
Engine deck did not required any modifications. Engine deck parts from Toro are made as Tamiyas parts replacement.

You have done a great piece of work here! Great job! Unfortunately, I have a feeling that most of the folks here won't even notice this posting since it does not include a German WW2 subject. I for one am happy to see something other than an f***ing German vehicle. :)

[mnickolson]

Tomek,

Also I must say well done. A very nice looking sherman you have there. Keep up the great work.

Tomek,

[blouie]

Thats a fine Sherman, the weathering is fantastic.

Nice work, glad you posted the finished model.

[Burdzin]

Thank you very much for all comments! :)
