Sherman IC Firefly "Rycerz I"

Description
A replica of the Sherman IC Firefly "Rycerz I" from the 1st Krechowiecki Lancers Regiment. 502 Bricks.

Sorry everyone, but some parts in this remaster of my Sherman Firefly is slightly offscale and improportionate and there was nothing i can do to fix it (thanks to lack of wheel sizes, and how weak the small wheels are...).
A remake will come later though, and it will be 1:1 with full interior!

Features:
- Alt mode controls.
- Q for crosshairs lighting (Highlights crosshairs red).
- Robust upper hull allows you to get to hulldown positions and bounce some shots.
- Bottom half of the hull is weaker and can lead to ammo detonation upon being hit.

the turning of the tank is a nightmare, but overall this firefly is very accurate.

Yay! Sherman Firefly with polish crew!

Haha yes, the M4A1 version only exists for that purpose
Not sure if I should release it cause it's not properly scaled either

Whoa just realized you actually made the M4a1 version only to match the recreation footage

No clue. To prevent friendly fire is obvious but they could've used a Polish insignia

Can you tell me why these polish fireflys had the white stars like they would be on american tanks?
And yes I have seen the pictures of the tank I know they had them like this but I really can't figure out why they would have them.

Maybe so

Absolutely correct
The box often holds the radio components too, and some iterations had even more boxes as counterweight
Wonder if it's because the original counterweight design by the British weren't heavy enough?

I learned about these Sherman's they can penetrate 233mm of armor at a distance of 1000m *correct me if I'm wrong* and since their barrel was too heavy they had to add weight to the back of the turret that's why that small box is there

ok
