British Cromwell IV Tank

Looking at the army lists, I realised I needed more than one, so I managed to pick up another two from Hobbycraft.

I always like to look at photographs of the actual tank when building these models, for information on stowage and extra pieces. Found these two photographs of a "destroyed" Cromwell.

It would appear that this photograph is of the same tank, but there has been some fighting, shelling or bombing since the previous photograph was taken if you look at the buildings.

According to the report I read, the tank was trying to turn round quickly on the street and caught a track on the road and got stuck. As a result the crew abandoned the tank and left it.

As with my Cromwell ARV (which I did first) I glued the track guards to the tracks and the main weapon to the turret and the hull MG to the hull.

I then glued the tracks to the hull.
