Back to tanks! I am currently working on overdrive on my next book, the US Technical Manual for Victory Decision.
As in the German book a whole section is dedicated to game stats for prototypes.
A good example is the M6 below:
(15mm Flames of War Midwar Monster mini)
and a scale comparison with a Sherman:
(both FoW)
more 15mm models here: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/15mm_us.html

Those are great. The detailing and weathering for 15mm is superb. Curiously I came across your site a few days ago whilst I was looking into Dust - great work all round

Agreed. 15mm doesn't allow much room for detailing, but you've captured the right feel, so it almost appears like a larger model viewed at a distance. I'm impressed.

Yeah you did a great job. whenever i see a military modeller working in 1/16th and their tank looks awsome, its still 1/16th scale. Your working in 15mm and it looks great. thats so cool. Your book is for flames of war?

Very nice model. I cant help but love the blocky heavies of american engineering. Makes me wonder what would have happened if america decided to invest into heavy tanks
