| Creosotewind | ACE M-4 Sherman Tank | Parked | 13-Nov-10 09:07 |  | | Views : 570 | | The turret was a solid piece of pine, rough cut to shape. It also sat too squat, so I added some basswood to the bottom. The bustle in the back left a wedge shaped gap that needed filling. You can see the fillet I made below the turret. |
| Creosotewind | ACE M-4 Sherman Tank | Parked | 13-Nov-10 09:05 |  | | Views : 658 | | Now correctly fitted. I'm trying to fit all the parts as closely as possible so very little filler will be used. So far, so good. The top of the piece of wood will need to be planed down to match the hull top. |

| Creosotewind | ACE M-4 Sherman Tank | Parked | 13-Nov-10 09:04 |  | | Views : 596 | | I assembled the hull and am working on the hull face. The angled piece is upside down to show where I had to carve away wood to match the correct angle. |
| Creosotewind | ACE M-4 Sherman Tank | Parked | 13-Nov-10 09:02 |  | | Views : 604 | | I redid the hull sides out of basswood to more correctly match the real tank profile. The sponsons (the hull that sits above the tracks) seemed correct in length and width, but were too squat, so I added some basswood to their bottoms. |
