Thanks Lyric.  I'll give the 2nd Tank Army M16 a shot.  Skins for the M-series vehicles have always been in need.

It be cool if the last camo for the sherman came with all that gear slung on the back. i think it gives the tank a more rugged battle hardened look. then something that looks like it gets parked in a GV garage every night.
