Churchill Crocodile 1/35

Post by hansolo »

Hi guys,

Here are the final reveal picts.
Although this is a Churchill Crocodile, I didn't include the petrol cart because I just didn't like it.
A tank doesn't look cool pulling a cart. :wtf:
That would look like he's going on a cheap holiday. :lol:

You can check out the build thread here: http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 31&t=19575

Enjoy:

An absolute masterpiece, and I'm still amazed how some of the older Tamiya kits can be built up into such spectacular models :th: :thumb2: :th:

I concur, this looks fantastic

Just out of curiosity, why are crew members included in some kits but not others?
