David, you make it look so easy. As a fellow modeler, I know how much time goes into a typical completed model, especially one done to the superb level you do. Not to mention shooting the companion video & all that involves. Well done…again. You set a VERY high bar!

[@NikitaRUS739]

Соглашусь с вами!

[@Mrlonely237]

Oh yeah for sure, it's very satisfying to complete though

[@chaoscope]

Always wondered if you could 3D print an entire model. The result is beyond my expectation! Sky's the limit!

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I know of a couple of 3D printed car kits. Iceman Collections had a Morgan Threewheeler and now has a 72 Ford Maverick.

[@TheProcessEngineeratLarge]

I just saw one earlier today for an HE-111. I didn't look further but thought it interesting.

[@biIIybob858]

Yea but you get better results in sections anyways

[@ekmad]

3D Printing is so good for subjects like this in scales where no kit exists. You did a great job on this one. The Super Sherman really is a beast!

[@StivenSforh]

Yes, but from the other hand it moves the traditional modelling requiring hand skills to cad modelling. We are entering "print'em all". I wonder how it's handled on competition models?

[@Phillipthe2]

The main purpose of the lanyard on the antenna is to keep it from shattering when slapping against trees, building, the underside of bridges, or power lines. Modern antenna are usually copper sheathed in fiberglass as an insulator...older stuff would have been sheathed in something similar bakelite.

[@Phillipthe2]

@@thehatefulkoala6891 Back in the day I drove M113s...the antenna mounts were right behind the drivers hatch. I can't tell you how many time I got smacked in the back of the head by them when they weren't tied down.

I love 72 scale armor. a perfect size to collect as many as possible. As always Plasmo, your work is impeccable.

[@generaleccentric5506]

Just in case you didn't do so, removing supports before fully curing makes them a lot easier to remove, also running the model under hot/warm water can soften the resin allowing the supports to seperate easier as well, besides that great model!

[@BT271]

And using a ball type for your point of contact rather than the cone on your supports doesn't dig in your mini when you free it from it's base ;)

[@jasonharlenrife6704]

Love the Sherman family photos at the end.

[@miketeeveedub5779]

Amazing how well it turned out! In the past you could tell 3D printed parts from across the room. This model looked good even when still attached to the 3D support sprues. 3D printing has come a long way and is definitely the future to small scale modeling. As always; it's a treat to watch a Plasmo video - cheers!

[@senseo2848]

Antennaes are tied down to prevent contact with powerlines inside of towns and villages.

1/72 scale is sooo difficult for tanks ! Amazing job !

[@zzeekkey]

Hey! Try to use ball tips on supports. it's easier to remove without useing side cutters and not damaging your model. Also try to remove supports BEFORE uv light - it's also easier and cleaner. Or after uv deep into hot water and then remove supports - hot water softens thin resin parts for a short time

[@diegoparga9324]

What a wonderful time to live in; if you want a particular model or piece, you just print it. I’d love to have the skill (and money) to dabble in 3D printing. Kudos for the great work. Not only is the technique and skill amazing, but the editing of the video is top notch.

[@jonathanhudak2059]

Beautiful model! Love the outcome and thoroughly enjoy seeing your models develop/come to completion in every video, Awesome job!!

[@RogerGlick-d4n]

I’ve built an M-51 from Dragon model with Modelltrans conversion and 3D printed tracks. It is the best Sherman ever.

[@dermodellbaunoob]

Great video about the issues you have to deal with when printing a model out of resin. The UV resin with brush 🖌️ is a great solution. I'm always surprised about your details in this small scale 💪

[@Tomah4wkVideos]

Apart from the exceptional skills, the music choice to accompany the video is always perfect too.

[@alanford1086]

Hi Another beautiful build. We'll done. A heads up for aerial/ antenna, I use the bristles of the dust pan brush. They are very flexible, so they won't snap off easily. I am looking forward to your next build.

[@aeromodellismodinamicoaere3829]

Excellent and accurate, each video and each creation are a real joy for the eyes and an incentive to improve one's techniques, well done

[@WhitBahnsen]

During the Vietnam war, the antenna was tied down because the trees would hang low and tankers would have trouble with the wire getting snagged on the low hanging thick leaves

[@Whitiscoolio]

This is actually right

[@ScottKenny1978]

Did the same in Iraq, but to avoid becoming the ground to a power line.

[@terrycherney5767]

Its amazing the details that you get for such a small model. I have trouble with 1/35 scale. Couldn't imagine something that small.

Incredible job on the 3D print and details. Your painting and finishing touches really captures the weathering and wear on the model. Fantastic job!

[@carlosantunezmeza]

HELLO nice detailing and beautiful results as always! just an advice if I may, you can sumergue the model in hot water before curing the resin, then the supports will easily fall apart. And I imagine you are touching the cured model with out globes, but if it is not cured I wouldn´t recomend to touchit whitout the proper globes. BEst regards from argentina!

[@bigfoot6253]

Next time before curing your Resin prints, take some lurk warm water, dunk your prints in there and then remove the supports. They will come off much cleaner and require less post processing. But take care to wash it thouroughly and let it dry completly to not pollute the water with resin

[@BrushQuill]

Looking amazing mate.

Don't think there's a better modeler than PLASMO 😅

[@nimroguegaming4430]

Hot tip from someone who prints professionally - the supports are a lot easier to remove and cause less damage to the model if you remove them right after you remove the model from the wash cycle and before you cure the resin. I hope this helps!

[@goforitpainting]

Cool as always 👍

[@2-Hands]

Nice, I wish somebody would make a kit of this in 1/72nd scale.

[@Skyiflyf24]

You can kitbash one from the Trumpeter M4 WOT and an M4A3E8. It won't be perfect, but it won't be too far off.

[@enokinnokenti5649]

The Trumpeter French M4 has the correct gun but you'd need the M4A3E8 as Skyifly24 says. Knowing Trumpeter, the parts of both kits would probably be slightly out of scale as well.

[@Lathagrianail]

Nice build

[@edospijker9971]

Hee Plasmo, its easier to remove support if you remove them before curing. but use gloves when you do!

[@roychen9568]

yea and i heard that hot water or hairdryer works too

[@randomnickify]

@@roychen9568 hairdryer seems dangerous since heat can damage the model itself, resin hates heat.

[@HabitualButtonPusher]

The purpose of tieing (sp?) the antenna was to keep the from whipping around over uneven terrain, fast driving or when dudes were on top or hanging out the hatches. They also kept the antennas from breaking. They were flexible to an extent but could be super brittle in very cold conditions.

[@Jcush21]

Tying. 🙂

[@user_unknown-m1x]

A 0.9mm thick part (on paper) being 1.0 or 1.1 is common. Think "loose" in precision is probably just a part of it.

[@HashtagFelix]

PLease make a diorama for this! this is really nice model

[@willthorson4543]

Overall i think it looks great. Only thing is that you have all that mud and dirt on the suspension but nothing on the tracks. A pot of the mud on the arms that hold the wheels in place comes from mud and dirt thrown up by the tracks or it falls down onto the suspension arms. Just an opinion. Still a really good job.

[@newtonfirefly3585]

Another amazing build. Was the resin you used with the UV light the same resin the model was printed in?

[@muswetyl]

I love all your content! Especially because I love the 1/72 scale stuff! I´m doing a lot of 3D printing my own, have you ever tried to remove the supports bevor drying? I had a lot more success by removing them before hardening!

[@commonsense7754]

Wash. Remove supports. Cure There should be next to no post processing. Dial in your support and resin settings and you should be able to simply pull the supports away after the wash phase then cure with barely any sanding or detail loss
