1/72 Revell Challenger WIP

[Wayne B]

Progress so far. Brass additions are a mix of Extratech and scratch built. Grease gun and mounting provisions not replicated by Revell so had to scratch build. Smoke dischargers are robbed from a Trumpeter kit.  Chobham arrays and corresponding mounting provisions were scratch built/modified to create a more accurate standoff from the sponsons. Some parts (e.g. TOGS housing) temporarily affixed using blue tack.
 

Subject is Challenger “Scud City Surfers” as shown in Concord’s Operation Granby publication. I was unable to find any pics of the RHS of the subject, so took some artistic license in adding some racks typical of other challengers photographed in theatre. Dust, lint and cat fur courtesy of Canadian winter; -20C, dry as a bone, and everything has a static charge on it  . 
 

Hope you like so far.
