Enzo the Magnificent Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 18 hours ago, Corsairfoxfouruncle said: I did some quick referencing to the Cruiser A13 & Vickers Medium tanks. Both The Medium Mk.1 and Mk.2 were out of service by 1939. The Cruiser A13 was out of service by 1942. That makes them ineligible for the build ? I should have read the rules more carefully... The A13 and Vickers Medium are out. The Chieftain's still in though. And now I'm off to search for a Comet. Or maybe a Centurion... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can only hope to get a full count of votes in the Great November Bunfight. If we do it will be next year. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 (edited) Hello Everyone, Just came across this in the Rumourmonger area. AFV Club is going to release a dedicated Centurion Mk.III later this year. That would be a welcome addition in this build. Here is a Decal sheet from Star decals, that might still be available for these new kits ? Here are a few photo’s of Mk.III’s in Korea. Hopefully they will get some ideas flowing. A Mk.III in North Korea C.1951 ⬆️ The 8th Hussar Regiment. ⬆️ Centurion Mk.III’s & Infantry from the 29th British Brigade. ⬆️ Hope it inspires someone to build one.

Mig Eater Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 AFV Club have been showing off a new Centurion Mk.1 kit that they will be releasing soon. I've been wanting to make one of these for ages to complement my other Panzer 46 stuff, so I might build one of these for the GB. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 Just a quick kick to the top of the pile. Always looking for new recruits to add to the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enzo the Magnificent Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 I had already decided on a Comet for this, using the Bronco kit. But now I'm considering a Cromwell VII in Korea using the Tamiya kit and Accurate Armour resin conversion sets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I have a question. When did the overall camouflage colour for British AFVs change from SCC15 Olive Drab to Deep Bronze Green? Oh... and STOP SHOWING ME PICTURES OF CENTURIONS!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mig Eater Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 (edited) Deep Bronze Green was introduced in Jan 1948, this applied to newly produced vehicles though any older models still in service after it's introduction (Cromwell in Korea etc) would most likely still be in the earlier SCC15 though.

Enzo the Magnificent Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Thanks for that information. So Centurion Mk.3s would most likely have been in Deep Bronze Green, while earlier marks were in SCC15. Arrrggghh... I said the C-word! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mig Eater Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I picked up the AFV Club Centurion Mk.III kit at the Scale Model Challenge show last weekend for this GB, I also had a chat with the staff from AFV at the show & found out that the Centurion Mk.I will finally be released around Christmas this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
