Hi Guys,
I recently finished the 1/72 hasegawa Churchill Mk I and made it to a Mk2. I replaced and added the following items:
Added front fender horns using plastic card.
Added rear mudgaurds using plastic card.
Replaced 3 inch howitzer kit part with appropriate hollow plastic tube.
Replaced 2 pounder kit part with appropriate hypodermic needle tube.
Your commenst are much appreciated. Hope you enjoyed the pics.

Looks very good. Maybe a little bit of weathering would make it look even better. Some mud and pastel chalks for dust.
ps: I'm dying to get my hands on the Italeri Churcill mk. III. I love british ww2 armor.

Nice! I'm not a fan of Brit armor but the treads looks too much rusty for my taste.
BTW, where do you get your hypodermic needle?

I like my vehicles a bit more weathered, but your paint is nice.
But, those tracks just stand out too much. The rust really needs to be toned down. Try a few layers of dust.
Also, they look shiny. Did you use a dull coat on them yet?
Again, very nice paint.

Very nice model of an unusual Churchill (in kit form anyway) Just weather it down a bit and it's fine
