Normally, I'd just sit back and silently admire someone's efforts, but as model aircraft are a long-time obsession of mine (35+ years) I have to say: I am in awe. Given the inherent limitations imposed by the medium, this is amazing. (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)

The Sherman has a specially attractive design and you have captured not just the looks, but the spirit behind them. The thread area is (...) (23 years ago, 22-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.military)

An excellent model, in a number of ways.
