M4A3(76) SHERMAN IN 1/48 SCALE

[MrT]

So I will be doing a M4A3 Sherman from Bandai in 48 scale. This kit has a interior, but some of the kit is rather old so I will be giving it an infusion of Tamiya parts to spruce it up a bit. I may even get into a Hobby Boss kit I have laying around here, mainly I will looking to replace the Bandai kit tracks and running gear so stick around this might be fun

Ok here is some progress in a different direction. I installed all the Tamiya running gear. I was amazed how well things fit. There was not much difference in scale between the two kits, however the Tamiya road wheels were slightly bigger then the Bandai wheels. Here are some new pictures and thanks for looking.

Added some plumbing to the engine to make it look a little more complete.

the kit parts really do show their age but really nice work on the details youve added!
