Jim this is an awesome build and I was under the impression the Pershing only saw combat in late stages of Pacific theatre then Korea


Nice story as info and I like the front turret plate. That barrel goes on forever!!!


Love the weathering and add one to it


Love your builds as gives me lots of inspiration.


Regards


Robert

yeah, that front plate is a bit special!
Thanks John, thought I would leave it the panzer yellow for a bit of contrast Had fun with the rusting and weathering of it, and I did see some picks of a makeshift basket welded on so I figured what the heck , I'll just make one up too. Glad you like it .............Jim :smiling3:

And, just to clarify, you use brushes and hobby paint?
I'm afraid so, the cheaper the better, mix my own colors, make my own stowage, nearest model store about 60 miles away and everything is so over priced the last time I was there I walked out without buying a thing............Jim
