Flawless.

A really cool modification that I'm tempted to try out myself.

That turret actually goes quite well on the Matilda - I thought it would look too large when I saw your initial thread on the subject.

Nice build.

Hey Marcos,
Looks great as usual.
Definitely a meaner looking Matilda !!
If they'd put a better engine(s) into this thing, it might have been a winner in North Africa !!!
Cheers

NIIIIIIIIICE.
I personally think the cromwell turret goes really well with the chassis.
(It reminds me of a similar thing.....T34/85.)

Very nice Marcos! I love your rarity conversions, this fits perfectly to them. I'd like to ask that those box-shaped thingies on the fenderes behind the spare tracks, what are those for?

James, thanks...

As you know, I like things rare and historically correct ...


Felix:

No, unfortunately ... When it was ready, the Cavaliers and the Centaurs were becoming available and had a better performance ... Only one prototype was built and evaluated ...



Tim and Jeff...thanks, Lads !!!
