I extended the kit Bazooka plates forward of the front locating pin and the front panel line.

Nicely done, David, that is a great looking scheme for the Centurion.

Stunning work David, if mine turns out a fraction as good as yours I will be a happy bunny.
Progress on mine has slowed down as I thought I had two suitable greens but checking them they are way off, so I’m going to have to order some HATAKA paints.

Re: Stridsvagn 104 (Swedish Centurion)
I'm getting quite hooked on this kit Alan, do you fancy a shared build of a Nagmash'ot APC or a Sho't Kal Tank, how about both ???

Sounds like a good plan, after all the effort that we have put into making the modified engine deck, it would be a shame to let the moulds go to waist.lancfan wrote:I'm getting quite hooked on this kit Alan, do you fancy a shared build of a Nagmash'ot APC or a Sho't Kal Tank, how about both ???

When do you want me to announce this, now or after the new year ?

As I have already built a Sho’t Meteor my preference is for the APC version, starting in the New Year.lancfan wrote:When do you want me to announce this, now or after the new year ?

I have ordered a set of HATAKA paints in the Swedish colours, which might be here before the new year so I can finish this build.
Here is my Sho’t Meteor

Re: Stridsvagn 104 (Swedish Centurion)
Progress has stopped due to the lack of paint, it’s on order and should be here in a weeks time, I also need to add the reactive armour to the front of the turret.
I wasn’t happy with my Bazooka plates so I scratch built new ones, they still need the grab handles fitted.
