Paul's Tamiya 1/35 Vietnam War M551 Sheridan

Post by Quax »

This was a typical Tamiya kit and goes together fine, it does look better with the metal grills but the variant I did didn't use the mesh bedsted

    I would have to agree with point A, disagree with point B......there are so many discrepancies with accuracy of this kit. Yours is much more accurate.
    :cheers2:

    Ps...I'm going with the mesh guard...accurate or not it looks the part. :th:
