Clipped Cromie

[grumpa]

Another "what if". A turret holed Cromie bucked up to carry some triple A, now being used in desperate ground support role for routed German Army very late in war.[ATTACH]310263[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310264[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310265[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310266[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310267[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310268[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310269[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310270[/ATTACH][ATTACH]310271[/ATTACH] ground support role for routed German army very late in the war.
Whenever I get a bit stale on a more involved project (T72) I tend to veer off to the dust shelves and revamp and modify something or other just to
break the mental block.

Nice one Jim, a really good looking 'what if'

Thanks Mick, I like to think out of the box now and then, and create something anything but "out of box":astonished:

Cheers, Jim

Not into these what if models ......

But having said that it looks great and up to your usual standard , if you had not said it was a what if I would be asking you what kit it is .
P S would look good on a base....

Thanks Barry, just thinking :thinking: I must have at least 8 or so other "what ifs"
maybe I'll put them all in one thread and post it.

I'm thinking of knocking up a couple of more 'presentation bases' of different themes. The one for "Cat-Tyusha" is called "Factory Courtyard

Not really a 'what if'. More a 'very well could have been'.
looks very good.

I agree with Jon. It certainly looks a very plausible AFV. Very impressive. It's nice to get away from accurate model making and have a bit of fun once in a while. Great stuff:thumb2:

Thanks Steve, I enjoy indulging my imagination every now and then and I like putting new life into some ancient and forgotten builds.

Cheers, Jim.

Great work Jim, not just a what if. But very feasible.

I agree with the guys on looking plausible. If you'd made up one of those long technical German names and said it was by Tamiya !
Brilliant build.

Thanks John, I thought it would make a snappy looking combo.
