A project update video of this 1/6th scale M4A3E2 Jumbo Sherman tank model. The base model is a 1/6th scale jumbo fiberglass kit from Battleground vehicles. This unit here is a production unit that was released in limited numbers back in 2011. The kit was given to me as payment for designing the kit and building the master that was used to make the molds. This model was in my stash since 2011 so now I can finally get to it and get it built. This build will be a series that will follow this build from start to finish. Along the way I will be describing the tricks to build the model, the components used to detail the model further, and facts / traits found on the real vehicle.

In this video I describe the addition of the periscopes, installation of the copula, mounting of the mantlet, and the addition of the casting / foundry marks.
