Cool stuff!

What are the size of the Sherman's bases? Do you always put bases on your 20mm Tanks and AFVs?

Great work - so much progress since I last checked in.

Really liking the landing craft fleet, and the DD shermans are inspired. You could do some swimming ones too - as the only bit of the tank you can really see is the turret, within the frame.

Thanks guys
I put the airfix ones on bases because I don't like the soft plastic track so you can glue it together easier. The bases are just slightly bigger than the tank
I don't need swimming DD's my sea is not wide enough plus I wouldn't want to waste one of my shermans by cutting it up, the screens are still removable so I can use the shermans as normal
