Excellent video my friend the Sherman looks amazing beautifully painted and weathered looks forward to seeing the base thanks for sharing 👍👍
This will be my go-to for weathering now. No chat, just very useful sub titles. Many thanks subscribed 👍
Thank you for watching it, hope it helps. My videos tend to be fully “how to” these days, if I find something works I will share.
Excellent painting and finish !!!
Great paint job with this Sherman . Congrats for this excellent result !
Thank you appreciate the comment🙂
Outstanding!! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the positive feedback.
On my list of things to paint. Will certainly come back to this.
Many thanks, I think the kit was great value and really enjoyed it.
Well done! Looks great!
Cheers, glad u liked it🙂
Great details of weathering, good job 👏
Thank you, I plan to make another Sherman one soon, but change the weathering approach. Thats the plan anyway.🙂
You made a mistake - tracks are type T48, and they have rubber surface and not metal.
You made one of my favorite models. I love Shermans. I have 9 of them in various versions. My favorite is the M4A3E2 with the 76mm. Great work on the tank. I love your videos
Yes, the support I got for this build surprised me. Maybe in the future I’ll do a Firefly or Pacific camo scheme. Thanks for watching👍
@@ctscalemodellinguk That is the only one of the versions I have not had the chance to build yet.
@@andrewluchsinger its a great kit, loads of leftovers for other projects aswell. Figures not too bad.🙂
Nicely done sir these old Tamiya kits are still good value for there money will look forward to seeing it on the dio
Cheers mate, I was going to do more on the paint work like you had but ended up keeping it basic, although the pigments did a lot of the work. Might start painting the dio today.
Really nice work
Cheers I hope to do another soon, with some different techniques I’ve picked up and want to share. 👍
Great work all round mate! Your weathering on the OD is spot on! Great stuff altogether!
Cheers, thats encouraging for me given your level of builds. Was going to do a more complicated paint job like my Tiger I video but just liked the plain OD in the end.🙂
@@ctscalemodellinguk if anything OD is a lot trickier than German camo to pull off, and you seem to have cracked the secret 😉
@@longlance67 many thanks, I know with other base Green models I’ve just come to standstill not knowing what to do to get past the paint stage, so onto the shelf they have gone. Got a jeep on the bench at the model, see how that goes.
Cheers for the share by the way just noticed.
@@ctscalemodellinguk I think you got the right approach with using oils and washes to add depth and variation to the green often the subtle approach is the way to go with layers which you nailed dude!
Also it was my pleasure to share it mate
Outstanding work. =)
Cheers for watching and the comment. Hope the like my channel.🙂
@@ctscalemodellinguk I do like you channel and already subbed. =)
@@MojoDevirus cheers for support 🙂
Cool video mate!
Cheers hope you find it useful.
Very nice 👍
Cheers, hope it gives you some ideas
As luck would have it I'm building ''fury'' at the moment, this couldn't have come at a better time, thanks for sharing
😉👍
Glad it helps, have posted some figure videos from the kit aswell. Any problems let me know.👍
Superb 👍🏽
Cheers appreciate the support. 🙂
Thank you
Thanks for letting us know the colors you used, so we have an idea on that results (maybe it's a secret?). 🤔🤔
Sorry no secret, the green is an AK paint details of the Sherman paint set in description. Primer is flat black Tamiya, the pre shade is light grey or you could use white at a stretch. 👍
Not bad. A couple of points though: The weld between the side armor of the gull and the top were made 'positive' and then grinded down flush, so it couldn't be seen (I assume because that would make it easier to keep the tank clean, so that not grime and moisture would collect which would affect the tank - if water gets into a crack and the metal starts to rust, even just on the surface, it affects the durability of the metal, and that's not even taking into account what would happen if that moisture would freeze).
Also, the tools were not left unpainted - they were green. The Germans used unpainted but varnished tools however.
Finally, no stowage should be left unsecured - that spare road wheel for example is just begging to fall off. And, exactly what are the bags on the turret hanging on? unless the crew actually went to the trouble to add their own hooks for that (very doubtful), any bags should hang off existing parts of the tank, like the lifting eyelets on top of the tank for example.
Cheers for watching, I enjoy just building from the box and its instructions, I take your point will tools, although its nice to have contrast on a completely green tank. Again the magnet fixings for the rucksack give contrast. I do appreciate positive feedback like yours as it gives me things to reflect on in future projects. Thanks again.
Hi! I love your work ! But, which color did you use during the pre shading?
Cheers will need to take a look at the video. Will let u know. Cheers for watching
Hi, I change things as I find something works better, however on this video its white paint I’m using. If I did it now I would use a light grey ie tamiya sky grey, the white is good for the very top of highlights but too stark maybe. Hope this helps, enjoy your build.
@@ctscalemodellinguk Thanks a lot man !
cool":_)
Cheers mate
Did you mix the three pigments together then apply?
Hi, yes but so much of the north Africa, bit too yellow.🙂
What is the colour you used for the canvass sack details, just before the ammo cans please?
Hi thanks for watching, I’ll have to take a look and message back later if thats ok.
@@ctscalemodellinguk thanks for that, it works really well.
Hi its khaki grey from Vallejo, i blasted a was on it after this which I wouldn’t necessary do now but its a process of learning for all of us that how we get better. I would add highlights now mixing the base with iraqi sand from vallejo
@@ctscalemodellinguk thanks for that, ideal.
Tank driver: * smiles with malicious intent*
Some other people said he looked a bit evil, he reminds me of the actor in the punisher.
Why paint rubber tracks a deep brown colour? Rubber doesn’t rust, as far as I am aware. There’s no metal on the grouser face, only the side links are steel.
It usually fades to a grey colour from its original blue black. When contacting soil and hard road surfaces, the rubber usually remains visible. Take a look at any earthmoving equipment around the suburbs nowadays, all using rubber band tracks.
Doesn’t quite do justice to the otherwise wonderful artwork.
Thanks, someone made a similar comment before. Hopefully I adjusted my approach to other Sherman builds on the channel.
@@ctscalemodellinguk aha, so not the first then? Good to see eagle eyes were watching.
I’ve found that there is a strong need to refer to several reference sources to get an understanding of what A Vehicles looked like in theatre. My interest is the Italian campaign. The general condition of vehicles is rough. Real rough. Looking at the photos you get to see the various wear points and what doesn’t get all that dirty. As vehicles were pretty short lived there and the attrition rate was very high, they didn’t all look like the ‘standard weathering pattern’ that some modellers seem to follow.
One thing of interest in that theatre is the limitation that most travel was restricted to roads. Few vehicles then would end up with muddy, caked bogies. That would surprise many modellers. Dust was prevalent, and in many cases (other than winter) you just cannot r3ad any markings on the vehicles.
Here’s a great sit that I’ve found helpful to understand detail of the different models of Shermans. It might be news to some viewers:

Loved the artwork you created on the upper hull, it was brilliant. No guessing that I’ll be watching again and trying to imitate.
My Italian subject will be a challenge with the right amount of dust. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
