Build Complete #9 Cyber-Hobby Orange Box Sherman M4A4 75mm WIP

Eric now I am really confused what is a Dawg?  I assume you are probally talking about sports right?

I will let the whole world on a little secret I don't watch other men excercise!  I have ran Marathons for the US Military, boxed golden gloves for five years, ran cross-country and track but have never I repeat never watched a full baseball, football, golf whatever game in my life!  I would rather watch paint dry!  I have done some curling as well great sport!  LOL!

I think it had to do with the fact that my Dad never was into it and I spent my youth hunting and fishing from sun up to sun down.  Also there were no professional teams in North Dakota but there was a lot of Whitetail!!   I am talking about deer for you dirty minded city folks.

It catches guys by suprise whan my eyes glaze over when they start spouting meaningless "to me" sports statistics and I start quoting "They call Me Ishmael" and other literary quotes until they go away!

I have gone to a few professional baseball games but I was comotose with boredom so I started visting with the people around me and made friends with them.  It's the most grass I had ever seen without cows on it at that time in my life.

I don't even know the sports rules other than boxing anyway and there isn't a lot of "rules" with weight lifting and running.  I have read "War & Peace" three times awesoem book by the way.

Long story short I don't know what a Duck is honestly!

Hey Eric! What the H E Double Hockey Sticks is a Duck other than the feathered kind?

Oh you know.

Nice win by your Dawgs last weekend. I was telling a friend of mine that the rivalry has been a bit boring the past 6 years since the Dawgs have been down. It appears that they are on the comeback, and that spices it up a bit. We'll see if they are on the comeback trail.

Edmund, it looks like an interesting build with all what your putting into it.

Hi Doc!

I hope to do it justice becasue I have a lot to learn about both Shermns and American Armor.

Aaaaahhhhh! So it begins!  Once you start down the Sherman path, forever will it dominate your destiny!  Soon your GGFG Sherman will be proudly staking out the high ground northeast of Trun and the Dives River, closing the Falaise Gap to the fleeing German hordes...

Good Morning Greg!

I got a good start last night on my the Governor General's Foot Guard Sherman. I admit I was kind of happy that I could skip all th eroad wheels and detail work of PZ.IV roadwheels becasue how hard can six bogies be? 

Well I giot my answer far more difficult than I had anticpated but I figured it out.  It's a very cool part and I was very careful witthe glue so everything is moveable for painting th eroad wheels in situ.

Here is where I am at the moment with step 1

Saturday Edmund? Why, that is college football day my friend. Remember: "thou shall rest on the day of the pigskin".
