I also found a "holy grail" kit that I have been looking for. It's even difficult to get in Japan.

Picked this one up the other day. It fills the want for both a wooden clad Sherman and a deep wade version. I'm thinking a simple beach landing dio, perhaps.

Brandon, as a irredeemable Shermaholic I highly approve of your new Sherman

The postman just brought me a new primer to be tested, MIG Ammos ”A-stand Laquer primer”, also a microfiller.
Will be interesting to test it out on my Avenger

Saw this built recently and had to grab one. I got the Caracal set to make it a C-131 military bird


Thanks,
