Oh alright then I will tell you!LOL

Question 2. In the supply depot how many helmets can be seen on oddballs tank and what are they? Hint:- Watch the "supply scene" carefully, its easy to find, it doesn't show the front of the Sherman! BigGrin

Question 3. "All for the love of sunshine" is correct. BigGrin

There you go everyone, I am almost giving this away!LOL BigGrin

So on with the build!BigGrin I am waiting for some parts in the post so I will start with some pictures. The figures are superbly cast and very detailed, although quite small!!Blink BigGrin I have included the obligatory two pence piece!BigGrin The main kit is 1:48 scale so I have placed it with the 1:35 Sherman upper hull for reference, but the detail in this scale is really crisp.BigGrin I will post some more up when the postie has been.BigGrin

I was going to stick it on the side just to be different!LOL

I have built the basics on the hull and the turret as I will have to cut parts off when the pe set arrives. the upper hull is only a dry fit.BigGrin
