With a replacement engine deck and rear plate it can easily be converted to a Sherman III, or OOB is a fine Sherman I. I don't know which type the Sherwood Rangers were equipped with. For a long hull Sherman V I'd say look at Tasca/Asuka, or Dragon.
Thanks Carlos, that's good to know!

Had the wrong canopy masks for the Texan I'm working on. Decals for the Airbus321 neo arrived. And pretty excited to score this Corsair set to do either Hudner or Browns Corsair. Don't have to many Korean war subjects. I have the HobbyBoss kit in the stash

Thanks,

Nice! I have the Hobby Boss Corsair in the stash as well. I'm doing a VMFA-323 Death Rattlers one.

Well, between eBay, IPMS, and after AMPS visits to Andy's, I've picked up the following items...

for my 1/48 RAF a guy at IPMS was selling it off for a good price, so no way to pass it up...

Image

then I found this decal set and PE set on eBay... each is bound for different kits in my stash...

Image

after AMPS this past Saturday I found this item that I have been wanting for awhile at Andy's for a good price

Image

I also grabbed these paints for current and future aircraft & armor projects... gotta love these AK Real Color paints!

Image

and then for my 1/35 Panther A project my eBay order from Ukraine finally arrived recently to fill all those empty spaces on my kit

Image

Thats all for now...

Oh yeah... AK Interactive paints are fantastic.

Nice! I love me some AK Real Air paints. I have a ton of them. I think I have that US Air Force ground crew set.
