Some research suggest that US tank aerials came in 3 ft sections, the most common 9ft, they then stick up a long way, not easy for model transportation.

Hi Zak,
That looks great with that backdrop.
It's amazing how it all works together.

This is an M4A3E8 Sherman, Inchon landing Korea 1950.
An Italeri kit.
Still to be weathered.

Looking good, I must try and source some scenic backgrounds they do make a difference.

Not really, working on it whilst doing others, I put one aside to dry and get on with another, so usually 3 or 4 on the go at once.

Dry brushed and weathered, almost finished.
Well I think that will be it.
Coat of varnish maybe.
