In this video I assemble the plastic Sherman Firefly tank in 28mm scale by Warlord games. It's a pretty decent kit. Does what it says on the tin... er... box...
Very good.

Jesus christ you have a youtube channel?!?!!!??????? I didnt know.

Firefly didn't have a bow gunner or anyone in that position. They retained the hatch for 2 reasons. 1. They were conversions of 75mm Sherman's, who did have that crewman. And 2. That position was used for stowage, notably ammunition. The hatch allowed access. In fact some of the rounds stored within that ammo rack could only be accessed through that hatch.

Ha! I put the sandguards on mine, I think they look really nice, but that's just me. Nonetheless, great review!

Damn it Herb!! That firefly reference in the end

It must be Firefly week. I just built the Firefly plastic kit expansion for the TANKs game. It is a nice kit, same as the kit Battlefront use for Flames of War. But much MUCH smaller than the one you built!

I hereby declare last week Firefly week!

Hello from Scotland, I'm new to your channel, and loving your videos of armour modelling. Thanks to you I'll be looking to buying some warlord and Rubicon kits, especially for British tanks. I buy plastic kits by the usual culprits, but your videos have convinced me to splash out on these manufacturers as I'm no rivet counter either...but really impressed with these kits.....so keep up the good work sir. Toodle pip.

@Quick-Silver206 7 лет назад

Awesome build Herbert! I need to get some more Bolt Action stuff.

Thanks for the vid, mines coming in the mail, I disagree about the sidr skirts, i think they look cool but each to their own :)

@tuppytheducky 7 лет назад

the box on the back is to hold the radio to keep it from getting smashed

@boerharms2209 7 лет назад

Nice tank, as expected from warlord :)

@timbo12021 7 лет назад

I think the part you called a pisol port is a hatch for loading the 17pdr ammunition. Bit too big for a port for pistols

@kirotheavenger60 7 лет назад

Tim Nicholson it did both. Main purpose was a pistol port though.

@FogofWar 7 лет назад

It is a shell loading hatch, standard for all Shermans.

@ryan8850 7 лет назад

I know that Warlord and co. use Renendra in the UK for their plastics.

@graemerigg4029 7 лет назад

A like for the serenty reference

@trekanbelluvitsh 3 года назад

Note: The guy on the radio calls the ithers just "nob team" when his tank has been knocked out.

@loneviking874 7 лет назад

Paint it with Canadian markings!!!! Plz

Memory serving there's not actually anyone sitting in the position that used to belong to the machine gunner on the Firefly, since the gun was removed they reduced the crew by one and used his station as extra stowage space.

@alessiodecarolis 4 года назад

Right, the loader was also the radio operator, 17pdr's ammo was bigger than 75's so they needed more space. It's a beautiful model, I remember the old Matchbox.

@ModellingWeekly 7 лет назад

I don't think there was ever a hull gunner anyway - 5:32 I think the driver operated the hull machine gun (correct me if im wrong)

@HerbertErpaderp 7 лет назад

There was on a regular Sherman. I think he might have been known as a co-driver.

@nickdsnik1675 6 лет назад

The hull machine gun was deleted on the Firefly as was the machine gunner/radio operator. The space was used for ammo storage. Edit: Beaten to it by Kirothe Avenger

@kierenkeith6446 7 лет назад

First :). Looks like trumpeter maybe?

@marijnkieboom3506 7 лет назад

when are we gonna see the ratte p1000 painting vid? or is that one eaten by the cat?

@HerbertErpaderp 7 лет назад

It's a patreon goal.

@Rubbseh 7 лет назад

Beware the carpet monster for it doth consume one's dropped little bits, never to be seen again. For some reason I cant help thinking it looks like a super sized PSC kit.The way the tracks go together, the hatch coversetc look very like the 2omm versions i built a while back.

@warspite6742 7 лет назад

It does look an awful lot like a scaled up PSC firefly with a couple of errors fixed.BTW The 'inner' box on the turret rear is for the radio and the 'bendy hoop things' on the hull are points to allow the tank to be lifted.
