No way! Are you telling me that a Cromwell actually knocked out a Jagdpanther?!?!? Anything is possible! Kidding... of course you have my attention! Those British riders would make the whole build very interesting...

Ok well the running gear is on and painted , gotta sort the track sag out yet but this means I can continue on with the build ...Yay!   I have to say that these tracks were the black vinyl type ..... didnt have any problems with them what so ever plus the detail is sharp ... all in all Im happy so far |

Yeah in my head the JP is knocked out behind a hedgerow with the Cromwell passing on the country road ....summin like that anyways lol
Once I get both builds done I can sort out the composition properly .

Ok well this little dio has turned out to be not so little ....over did it a bit but it allows me to add something else to the finish  Also been doing some detailing on the JP as you can see ............   Now this Cromwell kit is brill an absolute gem in this scale ..... it builds like a Tammy kit ...need I say more .....not sure I will need to add anything to this kit apart from the basic hollowing out and thinning of kit parts .....gotta get some more ! reckon I can build a Comet using the chassis and alter the turret ...add a barrel and its sweet! but thats for another time lol |
