    Mike,
    Wow, that is a top draw build and finish mate. My hat is well and truly doffed.

      John R, Graeme, Jim R and Scottie,
      Many thanks for your comments, as always very welcome.
      But, there comes a time when you get to the end, so for the final update.
      Here is a teaser for the finished build.

      But it was not to go quietly, and bit me in the rear end and where I could not go back.
      I refer to the front track roller which is just behind the Idler wheel. The bloody thing has been produced and manufactured 2mm far too high in placement. Very easy to rectify at the start of construction, but not when you have the tracks CA'd to all the other wheels/rollers, it's midnight/1 am and you have an important competition to attend. But an email will be going to AFV Club to hopefully get this problem sorted. OK, rant over.

      Photo's of completed model are in the 'Completed Military Vehicles' section.
      This build is now closed.
      I thank you.
      Cheers,
      MikeC.

        I would not let it worry you and detract from a truly remarkable build.

                My pleasure, Churchill is going to be slow and steady.
