Good eye! The Sherman sports a barrel sold as a "Fury" by Toucan. In reality it is (was) the Panther 76 long barrel. I cut it down to a reasonable size. On this tank, authenticity takes 2nd place to battle-worthiness. I added duckbill tracks for traction, and the barrel was shortened so the turret could traverse in tight spaces, or travel over rough terrain.Twenty six tanks, and not done yet!

Well done on all of them! Where did you get the M3? I may end up getting a static Pershing next. I still have not started on my static Panzer V, I will look up the Fury barrel. Thanks. I find that the detail I put on my tanks is quickly knocked off when my 7 yo tank commander is driving. Hhahahaha!

like I mentioned the use of watercolors is cheap and gives you a chance to play with different scheme ideas.
If you don't like it, wash it off.
That's just one tip from a new tanker to another, eh.
I'll be looking into airbrushing way later.
Will try other methods as well.
Saw a video were someone was smearing acrylic paint with the use of a finger glove onto a sherman.
Turned it into a nice weathered look that way.
