Nice model of an ugly vehicle! 👍
I like the finish. Have you applied the decals on gloss coat? It seems like they are a bit silvering...

I hope to cure the silvering with more Microsol. I applied twice some Alclad gloss varnish, but I must ne doomed: My matt paints are always gloss in the end and when I want something gloss it always fail!
Thanks for you comment

Yeah, that's a little tricky sometimes. I made good experiences with Vallejo products, just in case... 😉

Hi everybody!

So here is my entry for this attempt of taking a kit out of the shelf of doom.

In this case,I'll try to resuscitate a Churchill Mk I, converted from the AFV Club Mk III.

I can exactly recall why i stopped this kit: the lack of paint. I started painting the kit with White Ensign Paint, and I didn't have a spare tinlet.
When I tried to order a new tinlet, I then learnt that the Royal Mail now forbade sending Enamel paints abroad. So I tried some alternatives ( DOA Paints) before finally ordering WEM paint in Holland.
But it took a few months to do so, and the kit was in the kit inferno...

Now Churchill is back, and I hope it's for good!
