Best sherman kit to replicate this scene?

Post by guffman990 »

Good evening everyone
I'm hoping somebody can help me out, im looking to build a 1/35 Sherman and to recreate a scene out of the Band of Brothers TV series. The part with all of the American soldiers sitting on the tanks as they pass a dutch woman who has had 'relations' with a German.
Ive managed to take a couple of screenshots of the Sherman i would like to build and Ive included them in this post
I already own the Masterbox 1/35 The 101st Light Company, im not a professional modeller but i like to see what i can come up with that's why Ive decided to start this diorama if possible
Just cant seem to find the right model Sherman, as you can tell im not very good with the technicals :bash:
Many thanks

They don't actually
It is a rebox of the Tasca/Asuka M4A1 and thst brand is the best for Sherman tanks
But it is the kit i would have recommended
