Rowdy75 Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I have had it sitting partially done for a few months and finally decided to finish it. Still needs some stowage items. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmike Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Very nice! Got a Cromwell Models resin 1:72 Aussie Centurion 5 to build one of these days. A club member super detailed the old 1:25 Tamiya Centurion about 2 years ago into an Aussie Vietnam version. It is now residing on permanent loan at the Vietnam War Museum in Melbourne.

Rowdy75 Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 That's COOL! Didn't know the Brits had a hand in Vietnam. The ones used in Vietnam were owned by the Australian army Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HOLMES Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 YOWZER!!! SWEET ......I like the weathring and the colors that you chose and they have come out so realistically., Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fishwelding Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 That's an awesome centurion. How did that kit go together? Any problems? I've got to build me a Centurion. I did a decent job on both a Tamiya Chieftain and Challenger, so it's kinda natural I pick up a Centurion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did a decent job on both a Tamiya Chieftain and Challenger, so it's kinda natural I pick up a Centurion. Parts went together ok. a little bit tricky in places, several times i found myself with the wrong piece. If I did it again I would leave the road wheels off until after the base painting was done, then fit the rubber tyres and then the bogies to the tank. It was hard to get the inner tyres to go on and stay in place when the wheels were attached to the tank. Geoff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
