Aftermath: Nature vs Machine

November 16, 2024 · in Armor · · 4 · 73

This is the kit of a with snorkles and wooden panels attached to hull. I have depicted it stuck in the sand after the tide has gone out revealing it fully wedged in the sand. I got the idea off a D-Day photo of a Sherman in a similar situation so decided to do my own version using a Marine Corps Sherman used in the Pacifc Theater that has been beaten by nature and not combat. This is a basic kit to build, but sometimes I find these the most fun to build.
