    1.35 AFV ,M36 Jackson Tank Destroyer..

    well lads don,t fall off your seats,


    yes it is a US,Tank, :/


    went to the swap meet on sunday and not a sherman to be found,


    and I always get some think of Mike one ,I do buy a lot from,and he had this one,so got to thinking,


    why not try it,As I have never build a AFV, Kit before,and must say there very nice, no fit problems,and easy build,


    with a lot of detail,


    so hears were I,m at with this one,started late sunday afternoon,had a wee kip when I got home,and been spending a few


    hrs hear and there on it,have it painted waiting .for that to dry ,the join both hulls and get the tracks on, 9_9


    well hope you like this one so far,

    Very nice kit Monica, I know I've got one somewhere, an old Italeri kit I think.


    Looks like a nice clean build so far, can't wait to see what you do with her .............Jim

        Great start Monica, I like the US tanks always over engineered.
