The kit is a dog because the shape was altered in order to hold batteries. Cutting up and reshaping the front helps but still many things need to be detailed. The turret periscopes are just blobs of plastic, the loaders hatch is wrong, the tools are bad, the wraping on the exhausts is off. Basicly it can be a base for a major detailing project. Fruil tracks and a new 2 Pdr, new Bessa, etc. I started one of these a while back but put it to sleep when I heard Tiger was doing it. That was a few years ago.
Some may see it as a Matilda but OOTB it looks funny.
