well guys I have enjoyed building this kit and adding the blackdog hessian kit lifted it a lot , but a word of warning if you decide to use the blackdog kit then make sure you have it before you assemble the tank bottom half as the blackdog has a complete front which I had not realised until after building started and my dremmel was required to modify it .

Great job Steve! That's really nice

& the Black Dog kit has made it extra special.

One small point that leapt out at me is to glue the tracks to the tops of the road wheels. At the moment they're looking a bit like stretched rubber!

Cheers

Hi Steve

The Cromwell looks fabulous and the resin upgrades really do add a lot of interesting texture. Really well done.

Cheers

That looks great! The Black Dog gear seems to be good stuff(?) it really sets off the detail.

thanks guys I fitted the hidden pegs (for sag) and also noticed that the driver was a bit shiny , I had used a new to me matt finish (humbrol) and revarnished with the old faithful Vallejo .

This Cromwell has turned out really nice, I do like the camouflage on the turret and the front of the tank.
