Hopefully,this type of Sherman is welcome here. I built this for a what if modeling forum earlier this year. Academy M51,and DML M46 Turret. Tankenstein is hand painted in Yiddish.
Sorry for the bad photos. I cannot get the hang of digital photography for some reason.

A tank filled with holes.
For that is what shall become.
Boom we go.
Goodbye.

It looks plausible and I wonder if someone has ever thought of building one out of two wrecks... Really nice to see

Awesome IDF 'Super Sherman' you got there Zod!!! Some people got really don't into the 'what-if' but I think it great to exercise the imagination!

Luigi, there was actually a proof of concept done up with an M4 (47 Degree, large hatch) hull sporting and Pershing turret....much Koolness

Thanks Eric. I guess that is on the late M4 hull?
