Title: M4A2 75 decal help
Post by: M4_RHINO_01 on July 01, 2020, 08:05:05 pm

Need help with decals on my M4A2 75. I have various sherman decal sheets including the one in the box. Can't find reference pics for any I can do with the decals I have.

You might want to be a bit more specific.

What unit do you want it to represent?

As smurf says , we need more info . Do want another US tank ? Or maybe a lend lease vehicle used by the Russians or various armies of the commonwealth ( Brits , Canucks , South Africa , new Zealand , Czechs , Poles , Free French , etc ) Also a view of the other decal sets you have would help . There are many possabilities  if you mix and match decals , even going as far as cutting out single numbers / letters to make the exact serial number you want

I'm out at the moment but I'll post full available decal pics when I'm back. I'm after a US unit. The exact battle or location is undecided. Normally I pick from choices but I can't find any. Only thing would it can't be a snowy locale as the tank riders i have aren't in winter gear.

Brit & US Tanks of WW2 ( Chamberlin / Ellis ) says only US forces to receive M4A2 were USMC , all others went to lend lease , Russians got about 2000 of the 75mm version

Have you decided which Army  will be fielding  your M4A2 ? If so , post pictures of the decal sets you have  and we'll see if we can help
