Thank you all for looking in and your comments.BigGrin
Had some time to myself this afternoon (rare occurrence!LOL), so I managed to get most of the white on the interior done. I will let this dry for a day or so and then I can get on with the fun bit of detail and weathering!BigGrin

I have been quietly following your progress, I have to say I think the Sherman is one of the only tanks I have never built, because I find it aesthetically displeasing LOL LOL

However your build is terrific and looking forward to seeing you get stuck into the internal weathering, as well as being the figures come to life.

no doubt your Tommy-Kocher will do the anniversary proud.

Its the 75th Anniversary of the Tiger 1 in action come August, there a nice idea for a follow on

Well I am happy with the fit of the fighting compartment and the turret, now to get on with the engine bay. The initial fit of the parts is good, although I will have to shorten the oil filler slightly as the engine deck touches it and sits slightly proud, but apart from that it all looks really good. Air cleaners to do next so I can fit all the intake pipes, then onto some paint!Drool BigGrin

Beautiful job, doing a full interior does take it to a whole new level. Cool
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be

Engine is ready to fit in the engine bay, once the bay has been weathered and detailed. Washes will be applied, this is just base colours and a light dry brush.BigGrin
