  1. I've always liked LRDG trucks and yours looks grate.
  2. thanks thanks jim thanks Roger, what second S . not just trying to blow sunshine but I've built plenty of aircraft and ship's I cant weather. weathering AFV's is easy this one was just a very watered down XF-59 Desert Yellow and sprayed on with the airbrush until the tank was soaked and running off then just left to dry leaving that dusty look but you do have to seal the paint job with a matt varnish first
  3. Hi all This is my Tamiya Centurion mkIII, its a kit i would covert as a kid and spend what seemed hours looking at in its box in my now long gone local model shop window. I built it mostly OOB apart from Jerry can holder and handles I also added the cabling from the smoke discharges and grab handles and tie down loops. It does have the interior but not shown in the pics, the track came assembled (thank god) I don't normally bother with the figures as im not that good at them but had a go (so no giggling) The kit is painted in the Libyan desert scheme feel free to comment
  4. very nice indeed I love the chains hanging of the stern
  5. another stunning build, love that
  6. thanks pete thanks i do think im getting better at the tracks thanks
  7. That's fantastic I always love to see WW1 tanks. The weathering is grate and I love the tracks. That kit is now on my wish list Jim
  8. Thank you Thank you Carius Thanks Tony Thanks Steve I did just follow the decal guide as I don't know a lot about SPG units and it say's 86 Field Regiment (Hertfordshire Yeomanry) 2nd army NWE 1944 Thanks Foxy
  9. Thanks Colin. I must come clean, its just lumpy weathering powders that happened to end up looking like that Thanks Andy The cover is lead foil and the buckles are from the spares box Thanks Keith The tracks are kit tracks I could not find any indy link track for it. I always thought my tracks let my kits down but i feel i'm now getting somewhere with them Thanks Doozer Thanks Ozzy I built the M7 a few years ago too as the British version and seem to remember the same thing but have found that Dragon Sherman based kits are the same and just thought it was me. I also found the fighting compartment on the Sexton did not not seem to fit that well but again think that is due to the way I put it together. There is a Sexton at Fort Nelson on Portsdown Hill
