Lexa / Dragon Sherman Calliope in 72nd Scale

Hey at least it’s better than the old Airfix one😂😂😂

Low bar from what I remember.

Nice video. Kit itself? Well, you said enough. I was surprised to find out that Rubicon hasn't a conversion kit to turn a Sherman into a Calliope.

Now that you mention it. Rubicon do offer a calliope launcher that fits their Shermans. Might be worth picking one up.

When I could see we’ll enough to build such kits I’d make a point of painting them before assembling the rocket array thingy to the tank because it looks to be near impossible to do a decent job after assembly. I realize you already have about a three hundred year backlog of models to be painted- I hope that I live long enough to see how you manage this one.

I wasn't planning on painting this any time soon, but I feel like the rockets on top of the turret shouldn't be a problem. it'd be easy to spray base coats in there, it might be challenging to add highlights to the turret roof, but not impossible. You could get away with less highlighting there due to shadow and it being less visible. It might be tricky if you wanted to paint a camo scheme on it though.
