Actually one of my allied armor from last year, the M-36 Jackson (yes a kitty killer ;D). This one is from Academy. A very good kit IMHO in terms of details and fit. One slight problem is the tracks are too tight. I built the thing out of the box and put it on a simple display. I actually put some empty ammo cartridges (both 90mm & .50 cal) but the ones I used for the 90mm is incorrect. Anyway the shells could not be seen now that the upper hull is fixed in place.

The base is basically made from scratch.

It was the first time I tried plaster. I usually use other materials. I inscribed the bricks that's why you can see some mistakes there. LOL.
