Did I already say that "I second your point, zooma, about Andrew's immediate attention to any question. Between Haya and Forgebear, you folks in the UK have great sources for RC AFVs and information"? :eh: :haha:

Yes you did say that in your last post Prof - and you are right.

I do not know of any other manufacturer of r/c models that can be contacted personally for help and advice if it should be needed.

As far as I know Andrew at HAYA is the only one!

Another point that I did not mention is the opportunity to buy individual spare parts - and that is something that I have never experienced before either.

This is the finished kit - part painted and ready for the spray masks so I can add the various markings.

Centurion KIT of Parts. Spray Masks.

The spray masks for the markings have been posted to me by Rad, and when they arrive I will attempt to make good use of them.

Spray painting the markings onto the tank would be more authentic (that's how they do it on the real thing) and if I can make it work, they will look better with no "doorstep" edges or different shades to the base colour around the edges.

Some of the markings on the Centurion are too small to airbrush using a mask so they will need to be applied by water-slide decals, so I will need to do my best to make them blend-in to the surface.
