I´m looking for a dozerblade that can fit the Sherman, or parts so i can build one, especially a curved metal sheet ! Where can i find such stuff ?

cpt picard is obvioulsy yet to be remodeled

as for a shovel Mehall, i dont know about where you are, but here in the uk it`s winter , and shops are stocking up with snow scrapers for clearing paths, there are two main types, plastic and metal. one of these could be procured cheaply and cut down with a bit of remodelling.
just a thought

Nice Tanks Nigel,

I was going to suggest the same as Adzam above, there are plenty scrapers out there moulded in all different shapes and sizes, some perfect for Dozer Shovels and best of all they are dirt cheap.

Regards.....Mark.

may sound silly but there are several in the LEGO range too and duplo..... that some off bulldozers and similar.... if you are stuck then these could always be kitbashed or used as formers.... let me know if you get stuck......

The sherman project is interesting, looks like one that I bought (fairly) cheap - a tamiya that at one time had some kind of programable device to steer a pre determined course.
I take it from the white styrene areas, that it's to become an M7 'priest' then???
I'd like to see the finished vehicle when it's completed...
