M-551 Sheridan

Very nice, Allan. Tell us about the work involved! I've got that kit somewhere in the loft...

Thanks, DJ! Glad you liked it.

I had some help from a previous issue of FSM (with line drawings) and the Squadron In Action series. The Airfix road wheels werent very good, so I attached them to a motor tool and re-shaped them. Some work also went to the hull, such as the mine deflector plates and engine grille. The cupola armor, search lamp, and ammo boxes were fashioned from styrene stock, and the main gun was made from various scrap 1/72 tank guns. The bustle rack was made from metal mesh I got from a friend, cut up into shape. Theyre barely visible, but there are 1/72 MRE boxes made from Kraftwerk cut-outs inside the bustle rack.

Excellent stuff! I've got the FSM issue and the SSP book, so I might get working on mine!

Looks great.
1:76 looks like it would make a nice keychain :)
