After the enjoyment of the Matilda... I asked my little nephew which British Tank I would build next... I gave him the choice of the modern Challenger II TES kit from Ryefield... Or the latest Border Models Crusader Mk III... 2 different eras and vastly different subjects...
Well... The little fella chose the Crusader and the colour scheme... To my dismay, this was actually what I was going towards... So well done little Will...!
This kit, for anyone wondering, falls together incredibly fast...
Downside... Tracks... Meeeeehhhhh.... And you cannot use the supplied metal barrel..?? It doesn't fit through the mantlet..! How was this overlooked...
Upside... Build exceeding fast... Very fine and delicate detail...
