Phase 1 - Basic Build

good job ,this is a great kit and lends itself well to detailing looking pretty good but dont forget to touch up the road wheels

Thanks, the road wheels definitely need some work, trying to paint them on the model, is a little more difficult than I realized when I started assembly, I probably should have done at least the initial coat before I attached them.

I do my road wheels on Shermans the same way i dont think there is any easy way to do them also the idler wheel in the back should be steel it had no rubber on it i dont think

Good catch. I've been working off various M4 photos, and I haven't really been too exacting in that regard. I was basing that off some M4A1 photos I had. But you are correct, the M4A3 should have a steel idler wheel. I'll switch it up with some steel and some chipped olive drab over it. Thanks for the pointer.
