That’s a cool looking sky Al 
Received some more supplies today. Up to 7 cans of my new favourite primer, so that’ll last me the next 10 builds probably
and starting to stock up on sanding/polishing bits. These are new to me sanding stick so crossed there good. My current ones are the flex-I-file brand and are completely worn out.

Oh and a putty tool to go with the Tamiya quick set epoxy I’m going to try out n use in the future.

Re: How was your day?
The Elefant has been sitting on the shelf for 12 months, I have picked it up a few times and even moved it on the shelf and today I weaken and lay-by it yes!
the COE was not on the shelf yesterday when I was there, will been stripping the red of it and repainting it as the paint on it is very poor, 
This is the COE.

Will say one thing the Easy 8 Sherman should not have the logs on its side, They stopped doing that early in the war as putting logs and concrete on the tanks as the engine over heated with the weight.
The easy 8 Sherman was built to late for WWII.
