Is it just me or did I see album cover of power metal band Manowar?

Yeah, pretty good kit, the biggest flaws being the ginormous gaps in the hull over the tracks and iirc, the hollow idler wheels, not to mention that the light cages are way too thick... So as iconic as this later M4 model is, there are better kits out there, but given the option, this would be my goto beginner kit.

The tarps are "fun" and provide visual interest and break up the monotony of olive drab, but you put it right over the radiator. That'a a nono and a recipe for overheating but only if the tank is depicted as running in a diorama. Also, if expected to get into action soon the tarp likely wouldn't be there.

Rust-Oleum nozzles consistently deliver more paint per button squeeze than Krylon, If you can, use Krylon primer as it is the easiest to control in regards to paint delivery/amount

Excellent video, answered lot of questions about the kit...why?...kid brother had a PILE of armour kits he was throwing out...stuck them all in a box. 15 years later, I need a challenge. Basically, take apart 3 half tracks to rebuild one. The Sherman is a nice SIMPLE kit BUT I don't like simple. So far, copula windows opened up, vehicle disassembled but parts missing. This kit could have had more interior items and the open area above the tracks plated. The interior of most U'S. vehicles was white inside(done). With a ton of spare parts, it will live again with a full crew...I keep looking to my side...at the Tamiya M26....NOT YET!. thanks again for the info and the links to the other sites sites.... still think the gun barrel is too thin.../R

Nice review and tips! I’m finishing up the same kit, my first armor kit. I’ve found use for the ammo crates in my bombers though, cool extras. I’ve had fun painting the figures too,

The Browning 1919A1 Machineguns were added to the front of the commander cupola after February 1945, as a authorized modification to Shermans in the 12 Army Group (Bradley), The were often issued to up armored 76mm Shermans like the one in the photo that were, and Jumbo Shermans. Those were often used as point vehicles in armored columns. Sherman tracks did not sag as the ones in German or Russian tracks. Tamiya XF 62 is often the most accurate shade of OD. according to people who has compared to actuall paint cans from WW2.

The exterior of this aircraft will be painted in the Korean Fire Department 119 helicopter version! We plan to remodel the interior instrument panel from the existing analog instrument panel to an LED digital instrument panel by printing it on decal paper and attaching it to the surface of the instrument panel! 2:43

Thoroughly enjoyable, informative, and high quality video. The bits of background were especially appreciated. Thank you, especially for not making us (or thinking we...well I anyway...would want to sit and watch someone else just build a model. You struck an excellent balance between information about this kit and the Sherman tank; and did so while remaining interesting and engaging. You have gained a subscriber. THANK YOU!

Beutepanzer! It was captured by the Germans in working enough condition to be pressed into German service. Happened more on the Eastern Front but it happened in the West as well.

I'm currently trying to build this kit as per Joe Petagno's awesome painting! Great video and very informative. Motorhead are my all-time favourite band, and I got to see them 13 times, though I never got to meet any of the band, which in a way, I was glad for, as I have met people who did meet him on one of his ''off days'' where he was a bit of an ass with them, so if that had been me, it would have destroyed me. Like they say, never meet your heroes! LOL!!

The sponsons ARE a pain... you can see daylight through the hatches, and Tamiya repeated the same omission on their 1/48 scale Sherman (an excellent little kit BTW) as well... if you don't want to fool with making sponsons, I just popped a piece of black-painted cardboard into the bottom of the turret... cover over that hole from the inside and the problem goes away with seeing daylight from the top.... for what it's worth......

I certainly recommend it to everyone and wish that other video makers would clean up their acts and provide the meaty narrations like you have. Keep up the good work! It is much appreciated.

Hi. One solution for the lack of track sag is to stick dress making pins through the lower hull where wou want the sag and hook the track under them. Once the pin is painted track color it's hard to see.
