    I particularly like the tank on the left with the commander just poking his head up out of the hatch.

    What did you use for the mud?

    They look really good . Only thing that jumps out at me is the stars , I would think they would have painted over them or covered them with mud . You see lots of picture of vehicles early post D-Day with shell holes in the stars , nice aiming spot . Stars on rear deck or turret roof would be kept , not exactly cricket having your USAF/ RAF types thinking your Jerry and dropping a bomb on you

    I’d given the hedge cutter to one of the 75mm Shermans… “You go first”…LOL

    Ooh very nice, I do love me some Sherman’s, the true ww2 iconic vehicle.

    The 75 Sherman would go first as a target and hopefully the firefly could then take out the enemy target. The 75’s would also dispense smoke in an attempt to hide the firefly’s tell tale smoke signal as the 17pdr fired. Seems like a really bad role to have but vital.
