Hi there Richard and Gaz,

Many thanks for your nice comments on the K1A1. At leastI know I have been improving more on my weathering skills ever since I first logged in to this very informative website and having the opportunity of meeting you fine people always ready to share their views and tips.

Well with regards to the awesome Challenger II main battle tank, its one of my favorites. In fact I have one kit in my closet waiting to be assembled (Trumpeter 1:35 Challenger II with dozer blade in Kosovo)

As I've been reading about modern tanks, the Challenger II has a new fire control system as compared to its predecessor, Challenger I. The new Challnger II is clad with the most advanced armor, the strongest in the world. Invented by British scientists, it's constructed from steel, inter-layered with ceramic and tungsten rods, but exactly how this is achieved remains a closely guarded secret. Futhermore, with its new firing system, its 4-man crew can detect and attack a moving target the size of a football 3 miles away!

As soon as I am finished with my Challenger II, Ill gladly post them here. Have an enjoyable and blessed weekend guys!
