    Sweet build !  I'm no expert on the Onion but she looks mighty fine to me.

    I did look at getting myself one last year and building it up in the bomber role with pylons/bombs under the outer wings. Too many other projects on the go though.  But now that I've seen yours I might have to have another look at it.

    Well done. :thumbsup:

    Hi Ernst

    Very nice, I like the weathering and your mention of soap is very interesting; I must give it a try.

    Being new to these tank things, I haven't seen or heard of these before.  I'll have to do a bit of reading.

    Cheers :thumbsup:

    Very nicely done, painting & weathering is top notch.

     

    It's a lovely kit, I chickened out on the Caunter scheme on mine.

    Thanks Pete.  Might be time to grab yourself another lit and have a go.  A ton of patience and a few rolls of masking tape is all you need.  Besides, mud covers all  :winkgrin:

    Recently I went to the tank museum in Bovington before the lockdown. The Matilda was a really nice tank to look around and read about. They were surprisingly effective as infantry support tanks. 

     

    You've done a great job welldone. 

    Thanks Nurwin.  I did think of visiting Bovington last year when we were back in Blighty for couple of weeks.  It was too far out of our way unfortunately.  As I mentioned above, I've been watching Tank Chats by The Tank Museum on Youtube.  They've also put together a series of videos ,that I'm now watching, about the rebuild of the Matilda.  I'm finding it very interesting, but I do wish I'd found it earlier.  I like to have a bit of understanding about the subject that I'm building.  I'm ok with aircraft but I know virtually nothing about tanks it seems   :S

     

    Cheers All

    Yes, well that's what we all say in response to the inevitable grilling from SWMBO, you're getting into the groove quite well already :winkgrin:
