Łukasz Bąk is sharing a few images of his Dragon Models Sherman M4A2 he has depicting one of the fist tanks that fought on this island. He built the model with a number of additions, mainly the jerry can rack on the rear and the additional armour on the driver and radio operators hatches. The remainder of the model was built out of the box.

Łukasz painted his model using the colour modulation method using Lifecolor paints and the weathering was completed using Vallejo and AK Interactive pigments. The final touch was to add a Kamizukuri palm leaf on the rear of the tank.

I'm working as a journalist and a quality manager in Poland. I'm modeling since 2009 finding it a real passion. My favourite topics are WWII vehicles, Vietnam War, Fallschirmjagers (German Paratroopers) and modern Russian stuff. Also trying to make some aircraft for variety.

Lukas, Excellent job! Looks real! My uncle (who expired on the three pack-a-day habit) was there! He was also on Saipan. I'm sure he would've like to see the real one! Keep it up! BB
