    1:35 churchill

    I just got home to find my latest kit has arrived. The only thing is I can't start it until we move house because all my tools are paked up. I had a look through it and it all looks good, it's doesn't look as detailed as the dragon sherman kit I made last Time. [ATTACH]102709.IPB[/ATTACH]

    It says it comes with three life like crew and a farmer but it also has two extra blokes wich is good. Can't wait to start it hopefully in a couple of weeks.

      I have one of these, it was a really nice build, Tamiya models are well detailed and always look good, I really like my Churchill, am looking to make a British contingent, I have a valentine and would like a Matilda, and crusader, you will really enjoy this one!

        Hi Billy,


        I have just completed the Tamiya crocodile which is essentially the same kit with the addition of the trailer and flamethrower nozzle, having just got back into the hobby after a 30 plus year gap so I decided to try this photo etch stuff and purchased the Eduard churchill set and although this was a demanding addition it proved to be a worthwhile one enhancing my skill base and giving me a better finished model, one which I will post photos of once I've sorted a camera out.


        all the best Jim

              This is a very nice kit that goes together very well, I used this kit in the diorama after the bombs fell.

                  Good choice, I put a Croc in dio "Croc Rocks " lots of nooks and crannies to weather and it's an all round great kit. You'll need a bit of patients with suspension but it's well worth the effort in the end. Good Luck! Jim.

All The Best,........Jim

                            Hello everyone sorry it's been so long but I just got round to starting the Churchill. I'm painting it as I go but I think it's a waste of time painting it because it is already green and I can't tell what has been painted and what hasn't. It has gone together really well so far and here's a few pictures of what I've done so far.
