Building Tamiya Sherman Firefly - Model Tank

How to build a Sherman Firefly without any expensive tools or equipment.

Model: Tamiya's rebox of Asuka's 1/35 scale Sherman VC Firefly.

The Sherman VC Firefly was a M4A4 modified to carry the new 17-pounder gun, as the previous 2-pounder and 6-pounders had not been effective against German rivals. The Firefly was so effective that German troops were ordered to prioritise the Firefly as a target in battle during the Second World War.

An extremely good kit with great detail and moving parts, but quite complex at times. Therefore I would only recommend this kit to more advanced modellers.

This kit is actually moulded by Tasca (formerly Asuka), known as a manufacturer of superbly engineered and well detailed Sherman kits, and re-boxed by Tamiya.
