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

JohnnyOThanks, 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.

JohnnyOGood 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.

Album info
So far, I've got the basic structure of the tank done and painted. Next steps are decals, weathering, and adding stowage.
