These are the first of several Shermans for the 4/7th Royal Dragoon Guards, that I'm putting together for Rapid Fire!:

You can see how the scim netting worked out in the end – it's oregano and greenstuff.

Good stuff Jim, nicely done.

Nice indeed John, I've been following this for a while now, right through your cubist basing phase and on into your Oregano period……

Love the applique tracks and road wheels btw – did you make those up yourself are are they bought in?

Those Ready-to-Roll carriers are really nifty too.

Your Valinats must be just about finished by now?? Looking forward to seeing how you do the arm flashes…..

Geoff

Ooops postscript, I see you have done em. Just a red dab, I see?

They look fine to me – a little dusty from a road march rather than plowing through a rain sodden field.

I would do the center of the track a dark, dirty gray though, as it looks like these are T51 type with big rubber block pads. picture Tires on the road wheels would be the same dirty gray color. link

Nice work!
