    Hi Panzer67, welcome to the forum! :D
    I can't wait to see the photos of your project. I have attempted a few conversions of model kits using scratch-built parts, and I have enormous respect for anybody who can make a whole model that way!

    Currently I'm working on two variants of the Polish 7TP.I put them on the back-burner for the time being.My cousin is a huge Star Wars fan and I'm building him a 1/72 Millenium Falcon for his birthday.So far it is looking VERY good.He's lucky I have two or he wouldn't be getting this one.

    SturmTiger, I have a 1/35 scale Vickers E Mk.A kit ( the one with two MG turrets ). I have some minor trouble with the painting instructions, however, as they are in Polish. Do you have any suggestions ?

    I have the twin turret 7TP.I'm painting it in Polish colors.I don't have a color scheme for the British version.If all else fails,try to match the colors on the box.
