M41 Bulldog Kitbash 2

On with the show with the M41 conversion. Red Brown base coat.
The a Dark Yellow, as it is going to be painted in a Desert MERDC scheme.
Additional stores added to make it more interesting and to hide mistakes.
Several items were added to the conversion that define it as a Kiwi M41, Smoke discharger on the top of the barrel of the main gun, oversize storage rack on the front hull. British wire reel from a Centurion MBT on the rear side of the turret, and a aux exhaust pipe on top of the right exhaust.
Start of the MERDC scheme. I may need to add another MG to the top of the turret yet.

  5. Hi Fran, not that big compared to a M60/48, but massive next to a Scorpion!

  8. Cheers Erhntly, too bad no one has bothered to release a M41 in plastic at 1/76 or 1/72. Other than those metal jobs.
