1/72 Churchill III


Recommended Posts

Hello.

I'd like to add this Dragon Churchill III to this thread:

It is a very nice little kit and, as it portrays on of the Churchills coming out of the surf at Dieppe, I don't think it needs any additions: very important to a serial non-finisher like me.

Here are some sprue pictures:

As you can see I've taken a few things off the sprues:

These are the bits. I've assembled the sides and floor of the hull and glued the wading gear for the air-intakes together. These latter have some pretty annoying joint lines. The slide-moulding of the barrel leads to a hole just under the muzzle brake that I've filled with a bit of sprue. I hope this doesn't break the 25% rule.

Thanks

Alan

Welcome to the GB Alan. From what I can see you're well within the 25% limit here so please continue :) Another British AFV will always be welcome.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one. :popcorn:

I've made a couple of 1/72 Dragon AFV kits and they have mostly been fun to build - only one had a few fit issues. Good luck with yours.
