Ok I intend to build this little beauty.



Spruce shots



Decals, which have been pinned on the shed board for the last year slowly unyellowing

No colour call outs are given but 4 schemes are shown on the back of the box, decal positions are a bit vague so I'll be plodging the interweb for references.

Hello:

Here's a site that has everything you wanted to know about British vehicle camouflage. I used it as a reference for building my BEF collection this week.

Nice project Spear. Looking forward to this.

Great choice and a Caunter (?) scheme as well. Excellent.

This is a lovely little kit. I built mine some years ago. No pitfalls, no gotcha bits. You may want to add weld lines to the hull front after the top and bottom go together. But thats easy: glue down stretched sprue, cover liberally with cement, and notch repeatedly and at close intervals with a hobby knife.

How we doing Spear?

[Spearjig]

We are doing very well , Photos to follow.

[jssel]

Good job .

[Spearjig]

OK progress so far

Not as bad as the airfix churchill on the wheel front , but ....

Taped up ready for paint,



And this is were she stands at the moment, little bits and bobs to fit, decals on and weathered and that will be her done.

How's the decals looking. We of the northern latitudes have to be very patient while the sun works it's magic.
