Those boxes are super!

Re: CTA Entry, Paddy. Chieftain Tank

Hallo everyone, not a great amount to report but i have added a lot of PE detail that doesn't really show in general pictures but will show in the finished item :)

This is a nice kit despite being 30-40 years old, it does need a little cleaning up round the edges that all have burs but with the Eduard PE nearly all other faults are covered.
Thanks for looking (y)

I'm done then :) My first ever piece of armour , a rather old but great fun Tamiya kit. I think i might have to do something else for this group build as i seem to have finished this a bit early :laugh:

Way cool, Paddy. (y) Especially for a first armor project.
The only improvement I could suggest, is to drill out that turret machine gun barrel abit. Still, an outstanding job all-around.
