Finally I seem to have the Centaur finished. Apart of course from crew and camo. netting. As usual, your comments, suggestions and personal credit card details are welcome...Jim







And to be little artistic with this one.....



And just in case anyone asks, the difference in color on the gun mantlet plate was commonly seen on Centaurs, it was due to the propellant burning dirty great wads of paint off the vehicle....

Jim,

From what I can see (the photos are a little grainy) your model looks very good. The black and white photo is a nice addition, looks like the real thing in that one.

Looks good, I like the mix of junk on the back, what stuff did you use for that? Chains are a nice addition too.

Manie Warm Wishes! This is one fine looking tank. I don't care much for the vehicle itself, because I think it looked odd. But your model is really well executed in its paint, weathering, and construction.

The extra addon are lively, I love them.

good work Jim, Verie expertile done! Dave pleased to see.

manie warm wishes.

Great kit, just one question: what are those numbers all over the turret. It looks almost as an aiming feature for an enemy tank: if you shoot here then you have a kill.Could anyone explain what the mean?
