Dragon 1/35 Israeli M51 Isherman tank and M50 Super Sherman turret

[magicmustang]

Well, this one had been on my shelf of doom for many years. My 48-year-old son who builds tanks had air brush painted all the parts, I just needed to put it together. Pulled it down and started it again. Did okay until I got to the tracks. Each side had 77 individual 2 piece tracks. Man, what a chore, they fought me for hours. 

I liked the fact that the kit had the parts for both the M50 Super Sherman turret and the M51 Isherman turret that would fit on the kit supplied hull.

Comments welcomed.

Looks good!

 

One of the things that caused me to give up most armor building was when the shift to individual track links came out.

Great looking Sherman.  Well done.

Great looking Sherman tank. The Stuart I’m working on now has the individual links or the rubber band tracks. Not exactly sure which way I’ll go but leaning towards the links just to increase the build time since I’m down to only one more in my stash. But….🤔
