M4 Sherman, 105mm Howitzer.
This is kit number RT1601, even pre-porsche 934
Metal tracks, heavy as it have been made fully of metal.. Oeps... It is ! :)
Well, not the top of the body.. But the rest, full metal jacket baby
Got him with a trade with fellow dutch member, Patrick (Renken2000), a great guy to deal with.
This tank has still the evil axe of conversions above his turret hanging
As first option, thinking about doing a Hobart's funnies,
The Mine clearing 'Crab' is selected for this
Basicly a bigass rotating whip mounted on a drum on the front of the tank
Search google for 'sherman crab' , to see what i mean.
A 2e plan, if you have seen the movie 'Kelly's hero's' , would like to make a copy of 'oddball's' Sherman
Oddball: 'Hi man'
Big Joe: 'What you doin?'
Oddball: 'Drinking wine and Eating cheese and catching some rays you know'
Big Joe: 'What's happened?'
Oddball: 'Well the tank's broken and they're trying to fix'
Big Joe: 'Then Why the Hell aren't you up there helping them?!'
Oddball: 'I only ride 'em I don't what make's 'em work'
