Ok got the tracks on and some stowage started now.

just a first base coat on the stowage so far. The Mortar rounds are just primed as I'm still trying to find out a colour for them, any ideas?

Great tank, but according to the Tank Museum you've got the tracks back to front!

Hi Paul,
Yip Churchill tracks get you every time
. I have seen pics on the real thing where they are on the wrong way too so don't feel bad about it. I did the same too
Model looks terrific, I really like what you've done with this one very inspirational. Excellent stuff.
3 beers, tracks and all. Look forward to seeing the figure(s) added.

Oh bum! thanks for spotting that guys, bit of a silly mistake seeing as i have a photograph of a Churchill pinned up over the work bench

Better to correct it now than have to do it once it's finished and attached to a base.
Cheers guys
Paul
