Work In Progress / Re: New Project of the Month - Jan 2020 - British Centurion Mk 3
« on: January 05, 2020, 08:31:57 am »
The Centurion is a wonderful tank project.  Centurions fought against T-34/85 in Korea as well as other late war Soviet vehicles.  This may be the first of a variety of post WWII AFVs.  The T-44 became the T-54 and T-55.  The M26 Pershing became the M46 Patton.  Then there's the mid-east conflicts....

I got a broom from Menard's, O'cedar?  Plastic bristles like the snow brush above.

Spectacular!
A SdKfz 10/4 towing an SdAh 51 Ammo trailer will be a fantastic build.

I also hope they can fix this issue because the main reason I will be getting these kits are for the early Panzer IIIs (Ausf.E/F/G). Would be vary nice to have the correct idler wheel than the incorrect one. I'm very curious how they are going to fix the mold.

What about molding the turret and upper hull in clear plastic?
Not going to happen as this will involve a lot of production issues.  This was settled when we started laying the sprues!

Oh well.  Such is life.
I'm looking forward to this kit too.  I look to buy two.

It's almost a shame to hide that incredible interior detail.
Those who want to paint it still could.
Just imagine seeing the assembled and painted interior through the see through hull.  I'd paint the exterior tow cables, tracks and tools.
This is going to be a great kit to build.
A five man crew would also be a fantastic bonus.

What a wonderful kit to look forward to. 
Will the Mark I have a choice of gun barrels?  37mm or Howitzer?

Precisely why I've wanted this half-track for so long.  The variants which would be usable in table top games.  Anti-tanks, anti-aircraft, troop transport, towing guns.  Definitely on my short list of kits to buy.

Excellent!  The most difficult part will be the wait until this is released.

The picture I could quickly find online may appear to not have the rear turret armor as mentioned. 
Most pictures show full Pzkpfw IV H turret armor mounted on the Panzer V Panther Ausf.D-1 Bergpanther, Schwere Heeres Panzerjäger Abteilung 653, Russia, early 1944. It was one of the many field conversions using surplus Panzer IV Ausf.H turrets and serving as command tanks.

The upgrades to mount anti-aircraft and anti-tank weapons upon it.
Also to have various artillery for this vehicle to tow.

A Panzer II could lead into Marder II which call for a Soviet 76mm AT gun/Towed Artillery since the same gun was used for both.
T-60/T-70 could lead to the popular SU-76.

Didn't the Jumbo also have a 105mm howitzer?  Or would the one from the kit suffice?
