| Subject: | 'Aussie parts' are included, Paul |  |
| Date: | Jan 29, 2007 |
| From: | Alex Borsboom | |
Hi Paul,
The good thing is that all the parts, except for the 20pounder gun, for the Australian MK5 are included in the new NATO Centurion kit. So, if you use the Voyager update set for the Aussie MK 5 instead of their new set for the NATO kit, then you have all the parts, including the resin mantlet cover with the RMG, to make a nice MK11.
Oh happy days!
Paul if I may ask you, do you have some pics, links or colour numbers (Humbrol or Tamiya) for this Canadian Centurion, and do you know if the external fuell tank was used too in Canada, (MK11LR), as the painting scheme sounds nice?
Perhaps a fitting compliment for those Canadian guys whom liberated my home town in 1945, to build a Canadian tank. I've never build a Canadian tank before, I must shamefully admit.
What I do not understand is why AFV does not market this kit as a MK5/2, 6, 6/1, 6/2, 11 Centurion, just some extra decals and they were covered.
Cheers,
Alex |
