Murphy law strykes again....

May 15 2008, 4:49 AM 

A local shop received the Modeltrans M4 and M4A1 DV hulls and I did not resist. Only to find out that it is a pain to use them since Dragon bottom hulls and tranny covers ARE NOT compatible. Well I should now better because that has already been pointed out here.

And now that I'm struggling with the two resin conversion, Dragon announced a ready build Firefly based on the M4 (so a 1/72 M4 is coming) and now a 1/35 DV M4A1 which means that a 1/72 will surely follow.

What should I do? finish both quickly BEFORE these two Dragon Shermans are available. And never again by resin mods that do not show clearly the mod in place with the donor kit....

I wouldn't hold your breath....

Dragon new 1:72 releases have slowed to a trickle. The SU-85 has been delayed again and again, the only releases this year have been pretty uninspiring rehashes of existing moulds. Has anything really interesting been announced even?

DML M4A1 Early

May 15 2008, 7:27 AM 


Elliot -

Have you tried using the parts from the M3 Grant/Lee (Mirage kit) to kit-bash an early M4A1?

I'm still waiting for DML to release the M51 Isherman, and would gladly like to see the M4 Sherman with the welded hull as well as the early M4A1...

Its all down to timing Johannes!

I have so many other Sherman project,I can wait abit longer
I have not waited for their M4 or Jumbo (converting a Sherman III into a M4)so when 'I'M' ready if it is not around I'll do that with the DML M4A1 & Mirage Grant suspension/wheels/tracks.
& settle for a later early? M4A1 like 'Major Jim'? prehaps?, for my US version.
cheers Elliott
