Well then chaps,
Just to prove I haven't forgotten my Armour roots,(are you listening Mr.Dewire?!! :smiling3: )....
I'm going to cram a few figures and a Tank into a moderately sized Dio :smiling3:
Nothing exciting for most of you,I suspect that at some point you've all done a Cromwell....
Anyway,here are the victims....

Cant beat a Cromwell my friend. Seat front and centre for this one. If you are tempted there are examples of winter white washed Cromwells in the winter of 44'-45'. ;) :cool: :thumb2:

I’ll tag along too andy , looks an interesting project . Are you going to use the rubber band tracks ? I know a lot of armour guys hate them ( personally im on the fence - as a VERY occasional armour builder I like the simplicity of these but can appreciate the difference of separate link types , just not the hassle of assembling them!)

Blimey Tony,up and about early for a Saturday!
Good to see you look in :smiling3:
Yes,I will be using the rubber band tracks,(I can hear the gasps from the S.M. massive from here!!. ;) ),I bought some fruits for a Panzer II years ago,cleaned up,assembled about half a side, lost the will to live..... and they're still back in the box now!!
I've had relative success with the band tracks over time,and when they're weathered up,they can be made to look the part. :smiling3:
