More First Time Builds

[pickelhaube]

Hey Guys,

My Firefly kit has been out for a few years now and the molds are long gone.
I had a guy who wanted me to build a couple and I reached out to another board member to see if he wanted my old kits and he was willing to part with a few.
So here is my first Firefly build along with a Beute Sherman.
I saw a pic of this Beute Sherman and some makes a decal sheet for it and I could not resist .

I like the Firefly. Looks a lot better than the thing I hacked together.

I have totally remade the Firefly molds and they are available for sale.

That Firefly in German colors is very nice looking! Are the molds for the top only, or the entire tank, or just the turret? I have never sat down to compare the differences between a Firefly and a regular Sherman, but thought I read years ago that it was only the gun and turret that was different?

The Beute Sherman in German colors is the Bravo Team M4A3 slightly modified .
I have remade the molds for the Firefly and am making kits.

With the kit you get ;

Cannon and muzzle break
correct mantlet
fire extinguishers.
British style ramrods for the gun tube
correct travel lock
armor plate to cover the bow machine gun
radio and rear bustle boxes
British style storage rack that can be used on the front or back of the tank
Antenna cage.

These parts should be easy to mount to your Sherman with minimal modeling skills.
