Hi!

This is my first 1/48 scale AFV.Tamiya's Cromwell cruiser tank.
A few shots for start.
The building is a fun,can't wait for the paintjob.
Camo will be weared whitewash.

Hey Istvan,

Cromwell. Excellent. Wonderfull. Amazing. I will follow you for sure. I don`t know the quarterscale modell, but the big one is pure fun to build, too.

Thats mine so far.


Why is the hull in another colour: is it a metall hull? And what kind of AM will you use, besides the machine gun. I look forward for the winter camo. Clean build so far.

Regards

Dennis

The metal hulls are pre-primed and ready for paint. The newer kits like the jagdtiger, marders, etc have plastic hulls with optional metal weights that go inside.

This particular kit has a little trouble with the rear fenders fitting, so a little test fitting is needed (uncommon to virtually all other Tamiya). The MG looks really nice. Have fun building

Sziasztok!(Hi! )

Dennis!
Thanks for the comment. A 35 scale Cromwell is in my "plans" section and a A34 Comet too.
Yes,the grey part is the die-cast hull.It has a lot of weight for a little model.

Thanks Greg for the advice!

Cheers,
Istvan

HI Istvan!

Nice work so far! Looking forward to more!

As for the fit problems, they and a remedy are described in detail on PMMS: http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/48/tamiya/tam32528.htm

HTH!
Cheers!

There is a 1/48 scale Comet in the works by Fighting48th too

Nice! I've actually just started this model, already half done with the chassis! I'm not even rushing it, and its been put together fast. What paint color are you using for the main base? I'm using plain ol' medium green.
