The Official Armortek Forum - World leader in one sixth scale metal kits

I guess its about time i posted a few photos of my Cent build.
A long way to go yet but an enjoyable build with lots of additional detail that can be added if wanted.



Air defector and tow bar, i still need to find a way to add the central ribs to the air deflector



Rear hull plate repositioned so that the hull sides extend beyond it, upper rear hull side plate has also been extended



Rear deck with added detail



Modified upper deck plate using pins to locate the forward end, additional sheet has also been added on top to simulate the deck overhang



The back end of the upper deck will be fastened with cap heads that sit below the fuel filler caps, 7 dummy bolts have been added between the fuel filler cap locations. The added sheet can be seen overhanging the hull sides.



Center suspension bogie with added detail




Forward suspension bogie with added detail



Additional armor plate added to the hull front, The welding has been started but lots more still to do

Looking good mister Norris!

Here are a few long overdue pictures of my Centurion build



First an overall shot of the build so far



Drivers hatch detail and various fittings. The periscopes are Armorpax tiger scopes shortened and with a bi of added detail, hote how the scopes are turned 90 degrees when opened.




Hatches closed, note the sloping ramps,The curved protrusions on the scope covers ride over the ramps turning the scopes 90 degrees when opening.



The fuel filler caps at the back end of the top deck have been used to cover the securing screws for the deck




The forward end of the top deck is held by the two studs.



An overall view of the top deck showing the added top sheet that allows the line of bolts along the back edge to sit flush with the top surface, By adding the top sheet it also allows the edge of the deck to form the distinctive overhangs beyond the hull edges.



A view of the detailing around the drive housing.



At the forward left corner of the top deck is the armored cap for the water tank.

Thats all for now,
Regards
