Tasca M4A1 7th Armored Division France 1944

Hi Speedy,

This is the antenna mount I am using.

And yes, I redid the cast texture.

Hey BJ nice to see BB posted here at last.  She L@@king great there!! 

Thanks fellas

Fish, I got some new products on the way try on this, will have another update soon.

A little progress on this one while I wait for the flat coat to cure on my other M4A1 project.

Looking at the picture of “BB” you can see some foundry marks on the differential housing. You can also see a faint shadow of a foundry mark on the upper right corner of the gun shield.

I went online and found some good examples from reference photos of casting marks in the same location as those shown on this M4A1.

I used Archer Transfers AR88007 Casting symbols (Foundry Marks) and was able to make up all the markings that matched the reference photos.

Here is a shot of the plain differential.



A partial marking applied with some other numbers laid out.



The competed marking on the differential



Markings on the turret.





And markings on the gun shield.

Gonna stay tuned to this build!


NICE!!!!!
