Boots, I bet it's much nicer to deal with this kit than a 72 piece air filter like on the other project.

As I said great film, just ruined by the ending.
All that armour. What’s not to like? Apart from the ending, of course.

That looks to be almost Tamiya in engineering, low parts count but great detail B)

Is there nobody that likes this film or am i just not being serious enough............i like a good war flick personally whether it`s a bit fictitious or not.......  I don't mind things being fictious but Fury was erm...yuk. The director/writer takes the viewer for complete asses I think. I liked Saving Private Ryan, a lot of things which weren't right and even a fake Tiger I but an awesome film. But Fury...it has it perks, it's very nicely filmed and it shows war isn't just heriocs, but the whole combat scene with the Tiger I and the brainless Waffen-SS troops attacking Fury from the front and hardly using their panzerfausts...it was just too much for me. I've tried to give the film a couple of times a chance but the outcome remained the same for me At least the Fury Sherman looked cool

Come on Wout, everybody knows that 4 Tigers were needed to destroy one Sherman, and that Tigers were called Ronsons because they could be set on fire just by looking at them.

I'm gonna side with Wouts on this, yes the film is a war film with lots of war stuff in it, but it is a tad of the real beaten track  . I am not even sure that a troop of Shermans would have lined up and charged hidden PaK 40's to be honest  . In the book "Warriors for the working day" they most certainly did not do that, but that's a book about the British armoured warfare of '44

Wouts - I gave it to you on a plate.
Lovely armour, just a stupid ending. As soon as they hit the mine. Turn it off!!!!

They already lost me when the Tiger commander decided to charge towards the Shermans, as the Shermans did Guy: LOL Bootsey: don't mind the opinions, and don't feel ashamed you liked it, we all aren't perfect LOL

Hiya Boots, just build the kit as a Sherman in early 45 Germany that happens to be named Fury I’m looking forward to seeing how this one turns out B)

Done a bit more............you have to cut off the front fenders which are molded on and replace with the ones you can see.........this left a bit of a gap and a step so some tidying up was required using milliput, wheels are ready for priming at some point. Gotta add some cast texture to the front glacis plate and also the turret when i get round to it..
  
Cheers all
