Interesting to listen to you again,Merv. Any idea of the best source of high bustle turrets🤔. Glad you had a good 4th👍and best wishes from jolly old England👍😎 Pete 🤓
@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 So there are 4 good sources. I've found one is the Tamiya. M4A3 kit, another is an Azuka kit ( Although I'm not sure which one I have several, but i don't usually like to build the azuka kits, so they're more sitting in my collection than anything else.) Dragon has an M4A3 late. It says ETO on the box. And finally, the one that I'm using is the Academy M4A2 Pacific Sherman. It is a late model M4A2 and has a high bustle turret in it. It even has the split commander's hatch, which is what I need.
@@petesmodelcarcustoms584 You probably already know this, but you will need an M4A1 Hull with the small hatches that have the dome in them. That coupled with the high bustle, turret, with the split commander's hatch, and you'll be able to properly replicate aunt Jemima one And 2.
@@maddogmerv I must admit I've done no research yet,apart from looking for the roller kit. I've been trying to remember if any cheap old italeri or tamiya kits had turret. I haven't thought seriously about Sherman's for years and do have loads of books and articles on them, mainly Zaloga and imperial war museum. I just bought a neat kit of Stuart radial engine and two fitters
We need another 20 or so holidays,L.O.L. crazy. Hey Merv,enjoy the week.
Good Morning Merv. Yes, will be interesting to see some Diaramas.

I did wonder about italeri kit with deep waders,but it meant moving about 20 other kits to get to it🤣🤣.
