Thanks Griff. Yes it was a Korean War paint scheme. Towards the end of WW2, the Sherman’s were upgraded with a new HVSS suspension that this model has. When the Korean War started, these were repurposed and the troops painted them like tigers, dragons and other creatures to scare the north Koreans and chi coms. This is the prototype that I was attempting to copy - https://www.pinterest.com/pin/...9496794581885/?nic=1

Pretty scary painting a model yellow after spending five hours laboring over it but for 6.99 I figured I’d go for it. Looking forward to building the second one I picked up. The model comes with a less outrageous tiger front decal scheme. I plan on using that one next. Then, it’s time for flat car mounting.
