Very cool! I really like the 'tagging' effect. It gives the tank a great deal of realism. Nice job.

The weathering looks terrific! Makes the Sherman look sturdy (especially in contrast with the rough red brick texture). I also liked the "A bas les boches!" comment scribbled on one side of the hull (that's very un-PC to Moffen everywhere).

thanks for your positive comment :D

"A bas les boches" was a very common slogan during occupation. Boche was the nickname for krauts or germans. It has been scribbed a lot at the liberation !

Also, it was common for people to write their name, liberate town name and of course "Vive les Alliés" or "Vive les Américains" ! :wink:
