Shermans - Shermans - Shermans......

The Shermans pull into town and the crowds go crazy...."It's Shermans! We're liberated!"

I finally got my Shermans!

For all you non-Sherman lovers....go read another post


Man oh man these things are great. The detail....fine, and in scale. The overall look....they look.....REAL These are without a doubt, in my opinion, the best Dragon has done yet

About the only comlaint I can come up with is Dragon dry brushed the rubber chevron tracks with silver I'll have to correct that.

I'm getting them all! Well done Dragon....well done

Re: Shermans - Shermans - Shermans......

Glad to hear that. I'm still waiting for mine...waiting...going crazy...WHEEEENNN??

BTW, I've got a pic about the coming CH exclusive Sherman...



(I'm sure I would add this one to my collection, even though in this scale it would look a little like...ummm...a rubber duck! )

As far as I can tell from the pics, the track is the steel chevron type, so the silver colour is ok.

Re: Shermans - Shermans - Shermans......

Yep. Going over all of my Sherman reference stuff the tracks on the two I got are definately the T-48 rubber chevron block tracks

I thought too at first they were going to be the metal chevron.

It won't take much to correct the drybrushed silver.

Re: Shermans - Shermans - Shermans......

Yes these Sherman’s are SUPURB! The details all seem right on. I was very impressed that they seem to have got the shape of the turret correct. Very nice! Now a flat bed tank transporter would be VERY cool!
Anybody picked up that landing craft Dragon has out? It seems a bit more interesting now w/ the Sherman’s out.
