Wrong Lever!

Here's a project I finished which has been in the works for too long a time. I started this in 2009 while I was very active as a modeler, but never got around to finishing it. Since I've been back at it lately I finaly took the time to finish this small dio.

It depicts a Sherman tank somewhere in Normandy, where the battle tired crew mistakenly drove the tank through a house. I never made something with rubble and I have to admit that I just started on this without much thought, so there's some errors in there (like the front left headlight still intact after crashing through that wall).

During the last fases I did have the chance to test out the mixing cups that were new in stock at modelspecialist.be, and they came in handy very much. There's alot more still to be tested in the future though, like cork and styrofoam, some of Mig's Ammo products and of course, the awesome materials from Ushi van der Rosten.

The tank is a Tamiya M4 Sherman Early Production (kit nr 190) and the figure comes from a miniart kit (nr 35126) with an aftermarket head.

Time for pictures!
