Thanks!

Great work, Oliver. I served together with these as Infantry. You captured the feel great, although I think the Cents were even modified additionally by my time.

Thanks for sharing

This is a nice straightforward conversion Olivier. I personally would have liked to have seen a few more in progress build pics, but what you have given us is clear and concise, not to mention that you ended up with a great looking Centurion as a result!

Thank you Darren for publishing the article.

Thanks a lot Jesper and Jeremy for the comments.
Jesper I was aware of other mods made by the Danish army and more specially concerning the night vision device but I thought it was out of my skills to scratch this complicated system.

Jeremy, sorry for the little amount of in progress pics. If I find more on my HD, I'll post them in this post.

Olivier

Olivier if you do find more pictures send them to us as well as I will add them to the feature for you.

Darren,
I will do so. What do you prefer me to do, sending the pics directly to you or to the feature generic email ?

Olivier

As it is an update send them to my staff E-mail which is in the list under staff.

Some new pictures have been added to this feature. Thank you Olivier.

Much thanks, very helpful

Nice build. The unpainted pictures are very useful.

Thanks for the tip about the idlers and the track tension.

Paul
