Challenger 2 UK MBT (Iraq 2003 Op Telic)


Recommended Posts

The U.K's Main Battle Tank: Challenger 2 From service in 2003 (Operation Telic)

An Operation in Iraq which featured a host of Challenger 2 Tanks and there Added armour and skirting.

I mixed up my interpretation of British Desert Yellow using Revell aqua :16 sandy yellow + Matt white and brown.

I picked up the Trumpeter version relatively cheaply and after reading other peoples opinions and reviews of this kit i have to say i did not find the kit bad at all.

With some added details, mainly stowage and tarp, i think this is a good example of a reasonable kit, of course for the full monty Tamiya's version plus all the after market parts will make a very accurate and show stopping example...but with that comes a hefty price tag of £60-£90. And i intend to make one at some stage... till then i have this to stare at :photo:

I put this version together for £15 plus bits from my spares box.DSC_0881_zps29904875.jpgDSC_0880_zpsc2f308da.jpg
