Sorry to have to tell you this, but the Sherman Calliope with the rocket launcher was only used by the US Army, and saw no service anywhere after WW2. But not a bad little kit, and the British certainly used these without the rocket rack. The Australians, French, and South Africans didn't use that variant. Neither did the New Zealanders, except for a couple of turretless examples in Italy as fascine carriers.

Thanks Beekster for the information. No worries; I'll find some alternate decals or something to make a USA one.
Way to go Jed! Looking good!

While looking for a Death Dealer model I came across this kit. Since I like snakes I figured I'd go for it. Found it at a good price. I'm still hoping to trade for the Death Dealer. I have a dio design in mind for this  I found the two rattlesnake pics online. I will be doing my own design but I will "pattern" the kit somewhat after these two. Awesome looking snakes but they bite to kill, and their venom eats flesh. Not good.    |

I mentioned in another thread where there was some talk about Harder & Steenbeck airbrushes that there was one German brush I'd like to get. I found one from an eBay seller in Germany and it arrived today. It is a Gabbert Triplex. It is a bit unusual. The body unscrews just in front of the trigger to change between the three heads. They are all gravity feed. It has three needle/nozzle/needle caps for fine, medium and heavy spraying. It is double action, sort of. The trigger does not depress for air. Air flow starts when you begin to pull the trigger back. Pulled back a little farther the fluid begins to flow. It'll take a bit of adjustment to learn how to use it. The brush was used and needs cleaned up. I hope to do that and test it later today or tomorrow. It is a nice AB.   |
