Challenger 2

M.Julian Marles
I will be following, I was surprised by the great quality when I got mine😉

Ian
I've just started so I will take some pictures of the build. I'll try to upload them as soon as possible.

Ian
Uploaded a couple of pictures of the building

M.Julian Marles
Awesome

Francisco Abad
I just started the same kit.
I follow you with attention.

Ian
That's great. Almost done with the construction....
@Francisco let me know how your build is coming together.

Francisco Abad
I go very slowly. But I have problems with the fit in the bottom of the turret.

Ian
The turret wasn't the best fit but with a bit of filling up it was ok. The biggest problem I had was with the tracks because they were to short, but with the fenders you can't see it.

Dave Flitton
Oh, I see now the problem

Ian
Build complete. My apologies for the low quality of the pictures.

Francisco Abad
Very nice Ian. A good work.

M.Julian Marles
Thanks for the heads up on the issues. It looks great!

Ian
Anybody an idea of the green colour? I prefer working with Vallejo but for the moment I have four numbers. Vallejo air 44, Vallejo 886, 987 or 924? Tried the internet but didn't find anything conclusive.

If you search for a good british camo green, you can use Humbrol 86 (light olive).

Francisco Abad
Adding a little controversy I would say Vallejo 897 or 70888 or Tamiya XF-67 with filters. British green is a world.

Ian
That is thinking out of the box 🙂 . But i've decided to go with a more grayer tone of green. I'm going to use the vallejo air 44 and mix it up with darker and lighter shades.

Ian
Painting almost done...
