Hi Plastivores! Here's a recent assembly that was used as the basis for a tutorial on PE at a CAMO75 (my modelling club) workshop. I was able to present it almost finished on its base last weekend at the Saumur show. The work's base is an old kit that I found in the attic of my family home after watching the "Rogue Heroes" series last year. As I didn't pay anything for the kit, I had no qualms about adding some made-in-China resin, Def wheels and a PE set (the whole thing probably costing two or three times what I bought the kit for decades ago...) (the increase in the price of life and plastic, that's something!) (not that I usually have qualms..). phew! Anyway, here's the result before painting: If you find that the front right wheel sticks out a little (a lot) from the wing, that's normal. The cab is not fixed at this stage to make it easier to paint . The next post will deal with painting Fabrice

Well, I think I might have finished this. I could add some (a lot of?) damp mud to the lower hull, suspension, and tracks, and some rain-staining to the upper surfaces, but right now, I'm fairly happy with it 'as is'. It needs a figure, because otherwise the diminutive size isn't apparent, but I don't like the poses of the kit figures. I think I've seen the figure I want to use (with a bit of green-stuff to mod one or two areas), but haven't purchased it yet.

This is my Challenger 1 MK 3. It is mainly how it came from the box, with no alterations regarding accuracy except for the addition of PE parts. My knowledge of tanks is very limited and I didn't have the time to study the real thing in detail on the Internet, but I did attempt for the first time to create my own camo netting and tarpaulins instead of paying out a lot of dosh. Using poetic justice I did create some covers for the side accessory pods. Though it may not be real, I thought it looked ok. So, I hope you enjoy viewing the photo's and look forward to any comments, good or bad, as they make us better at what we do. To follow the build in the WIP forum please click here
