M4 Kitbash

Dave Flitton
I have done a few of these kit bashes, I will watch and see what you will do.

Martin
Thanks Dave, but don't expect anything too spectacular. I'm only building for fun, in my rare spare time without any kids around, with cheap tools. Certainly not trying to build an award-winning contest-model...😢

Dave Flitton
It's always about fun, I no longer build for "contests", I just want to see if I can build something different once I build the "standard" kit. Good luck.

Martin
Almost finished, still waiting for the Italeri kit to arrive, so I can use the spare tracks from that one. Already used the turret from my ESCI M4A1 Calliope, as that is exactly the same as the Italeri. Unfortunately, I had a struggle with some dry transfers, trying to make an existing tank. That turned out to be a disaster, so I had to settle for a fantasy tank with a reg. number from the ESCI Calliope.

Tough job in that scale, Martin. Like your progress and results so far!

Maarten Kruizenga
that looks really great................but why did you have to mention the shovel handle......................that's all i can see now..........cut it shorter and make it a 't' bar

Martin
Sorry Maarten😉 Work is not finished yet. I might rework the shovel and probably even the circle-star on the back. It annoys me...

Maarten Kruizenga
I assume the big stars are to dissuade trigger happy p-47 pilots (sorry, I know that's obvious).
