James says, “When the long-awaited 1/35 scale Tamiya M4A3E8 “Easy Eight” came out, and after the seeing the movie Fury five times, I decided I had to build the model.” James loaded the Sherman with Verlinden stowage, airbrushed it with Tamiya paints, and treated the tank with pastels and artist’s oils for weathering. He used plaster for the cobblestone street.
