Hi Scoutmaster

I like shermans! my favourite WW2 tank, and braille scale is my favourite too!


BTW are you really a scoutmaster, like in the boy scouts??? cos i know someone who is also in the scouts AND into braille scale tanks....

Smile
Yes DOM, I'm a District Scout Leader with the Singapore Scouts and together with some of our Bros and Sistahs in this Forum, we had actually organized a Scale Modelling Workshop for Cub Scouts...
oh cool! do you happen to know a Cheah Kok Ming? I think he's a scoutmaster too!

Abt your shermies, do you preshade the models before you paint? I suppose you use an airbrush too?

Gosh so many nice builds on this site, so many inspirational stuff... i have a few of the dragon shermans and other brands a well... i gotta hurry up with some of my other builds... then i can start on my shermans as well...!

Smile
DOM, I did not preshade the models but gave them a thorough base coating of flat black. Once this base coat had dried, I started applying Olive Drab. I've been using airbrush for all my models for about 4-5 yrs.

I haven't have the opportunity to meet Kok Ming. I'm pretty sure he's not from my Scouting District.
Hi Scoutmasters. Nice collections.....are they from Dragon?
Hi Duke! Yes they are from Dragon...I still have another batch of 4 Shermies which are still under construction. Will be posting my progress in the days to come...
Dragon is a great brand if you want to start a braille Sherman collection. They have about over 10 versions and you can still add on the ones from Trumpeter.
