Tongde Churchill Mk VII
Time to make some adjustments to Tongde's Churchill. I replaced the machine gun covers. 3D printed elements, Besa barrels from Ludwig's Hobby. Photos before and after.

Re: Tongde Churchill Mk VII
As always, Kaczor, I am watching to learn. I will be interested when you choose paint, too, because I have some of Vallejo's color for WWII UK AFVs and I wonder about reasonable accuracy.

Re: Tongde Churchill Mk VII
For British S.C.C.15 I use a Mike Starmer Tamiya mix I found on another forum: 5 parts XF-81 "Dark Green 2 (RAF), 1 part XF-71 "Cockpit green (IJN)", 1 part Olive Green. Interestingly, this mix is very similar to the ready-made Fosco "English Green" spray paint.

Cool! Weld seams always add nice extra details.

Looks great. I'll have to steal some idea from your build when I get around to doing mine.
