Oh well wasn't going to touch side mirrors but unable to get any painting at moment so went and detailed to be movable

Very nice addition, I often find myself doing simliar detail bits when I'm waiting for parts or paint. Nice job!!

The non slip coating was done with 2 coats of Tamiya Texture Paint (Grit Effect, Light Sand) I left 36hrs between coats it was brushed on then I tidied up the raised areas if any got on. I am happy with the result as the chally 2 anti slip is sprayed on so doesn't stand as much as other tanks.

Its green now

The rebuild is slowly starting to happen.

More done majority of glazing fitted first 2 sights detailed indicators and fire extinguishers sandbagged and fitted,

Top of turret finished tried metal tracks and final drive and idle wheels from DKLRMC but they where a nightmare had to leave final drive wheel quite slack and 1 idler wheel kept unscrewing itself the whole lot sound like it was going to RIP all the plastics bits to shreds so back to plastic but never mind that here is the turret top,

Very nice, am impressed . I should start looking at the modern tanks.

Right sorted the track problem the final drive wheels needed 2 washers inbetween as with out they to close together and where trapping the track between the toothed half's everything runs smooth now don't know if anyone else has had this problem with the DKLMRC challenger 2 metal tracks and wheels?

Ok ready for inspection is another Challenger 2 ready for the ranges quite happy with how it turned out, I know it's a bit clean but that's the way I like them and will let it dirty naturally.
