Default My latest work

This is Tamiya's M4 Sherman, the figures came with the kit. Its not totally finished, about 80% done. I still need to do weathering on the Sherman, add stowage, sandbags, and other nice details. The figures still need some touch up painting and the edges around the base are a bit messy, but you get the basic idea. One more figure will also be added. I'll post some pics of the final product whenever I finish.

I already put a coat of olive drab over the whole vehicle, but the stowage, weathering, drybrushing, and other little details will break up the color a little bit.
