Hi all,

I took a heap of pics of a Centurion Mk5 at a recent exhibition for the Long Tan annicversary. If anyone would like these as reference shots, especially for AFV's new kit, let me know.

Cheers

Any chance you could donate those photos to the walkaround gallery here on Armorama and also to Don Busack of primeportal? Might save you the hassle of emailing it to individuals.

Awesome! Follow this link below

Email him and let him know you want to donate the photos. Remember to send the actual resolution photos as his site is one of the few that actually displays the photos in true resolution.

Good on ya for donating it too!

Guys, feel free to submit the pics to AMMS (see Peters post above). We have been colating a large collection of photos of Aussie Cents (and other Aussie Subjects) and would be happy to host these for you. We are an Australian based club forum for the Brisbane and Sydney AMMS modelling clubs. We have members stretching from Perth, Melbourne, Queenscliff , Bendigo, Mt Isa, Canberra, Albury, Wollongong, Newcastle, OS and many other areas within Australia.
Cheers

Looking forward to the pics...be sure to let us know when they're up. I'm building the AFV Centurion right now as a Canadian Mk 11. What a great kit!!
Here's a progress shot with the Accurate Armour L7 105mm barrel with the kit muzzle grafted on.....
