Nicely done. Looks great. Almost motivated me to start the one I have in the stash, but other projects first.

What colour was this please? My grandfather's unit was 10th royal hussars and I believe their shermans at 2nd battle of El Alamein were very similar. In fact, I saw you also built Dragon 6617 (El Al Sherman) and in the instructions it says Mr Hobby dark earth for his actual unit but others seem to think that'd be incorrect. By the way the magic tracks in that kit go together very easily but are you supposed to glue them because they also come apart just as easily. Lol

Hi Danny, for the Crusader, time period early 1943, I used Vallejo Model Air 71330, british khaki green no. 3, at the moment I can't say if it would also fit to the Sherman II of 10th Royal Hussars, El Alamein 1942. I would guess, if it was a brown or earth shade like Dragons instruction say, then maybe SCC-1A British Brown which was in use 1941-42

I've found a painting kit by ammo mig for commonwealth Sherman's in North Africa. I think it has all the colours I need for both the sherman and crusader of the 10th hussars.
According to border models they had a BSC 381 light stone on the crusader and Dragon say Mr Hobby 22 dark earth which is very close to ammo mig 111 on a comparison site for the colour of 10th hussar sherman.
I know some people get very hung up on getting the colours very very accurate but I might just stick with the colours the kit makers suggest rather than researching for countless hours.
I'd rather spend my time practice building cheap kits. I think 🙂
