With some time off for easter I've been tackling the 'Work In Progress' shelf which is almost full, I need space for more builds although I am trying to get better at starting a build and finishing it without being distracted by something new and shiny. I have an ongoing ambition to build every British WW2 tank and tracked AFV in 1/72. The Covenanter is an issue as no injection kit exists that I am aware of. The Wee Friends kit is aimed at wargaming but I thought I'd give it a go and break my duck on a relatively cheap resin model before I butcher the Hauler A30 Challenger I bought. Being resin it was a different kind of build removing the moulding gates wasnt quite as bad as I thought it might be. It only comes in about 6 parts. I needed to rebuild the tool rack on the engine deck using some plasticard from an ice cream box. I added a shovel to the tool rack from the bits box before I realised the turret bustle already had one moulded on, can never have too many shovels. The barrel that came with mine was cast white metal so I swapped that out for a Master turned barrel for the 2 pounder and also added a Besa barrel from the same pack. Decals were from Black Lion Decal's 'Training in Britain 1941-43' set and are for 9th Armoured Division. Thanks for looking. Cheers
