Well I had a vague plan to save this for the upcoming what if campaign but that didnt work.

Anyway its a 1/72nd Cromwell T29E3, finished - well for the moment anyway. Still got to add crew, mg, tow cable and maybe brush guards but got a few other things that need to be completed first.......

Thnx Eddy,

Its actually just a wargaming vehicle, part of my (under construstion) Marine Heavy Battalion operating in Southern France '46. Pretty happy with it tho even if the OD was a struggle. I havent painted much US stuff at all before and I found the colour pretty difficult to get a handle on.

cheers
Brent

As usual I find it difficult to get my head round the fact that your models are 1/72! Thanks for sharing, I look forward to more photos when you've done more.

I remember an old Playstation game that featured this tank for the allied side, it was sort of a Luft '46 game but with tanks. Not even tigers could stand up to this thing...but of course the Germans had heavier tanks with bigger guns. Gotta love the underdog eh.

Very nicely done model anyway...and yes it is very mean lookin'

This is a stunner. One of the nicest pieces I've seen in a long time. Congrats on a superb modeling effort.
