Thanks Tony. I have just a few more steps to do before I wrap this me up. I got the decals on today, so next up is some washes in select locations.

Well done, but it always is. What’s left?

Thanks guys. The main things left are washes, flat coat, tracks, some dry brushing, and final weathering.

Oh yeah, the crew figures also…

That is top notch work, Carlos. You're really hitting the ball out of the park with that Sherman.

Mike and Torben, thank you. I’ve had a bit of busy work around the house keeping me from doing much work on this over the past several days.

But I finally had some uninterrupted bench time today, so I finished up the detail work on the stowage by cleaning up the oil wash then adding some dry brushing effects.

I also continued work on the crew figures…

more to come soon…
