The purpose of this book is to present techniques and methodologies for building scale replicas of the Churchill Infantry Tank. With such a diverse and extensive subject to cover in a modelling book, the challenge was in the selection of variants that best represent the most common types of Churchill. Moreover, it was equally as important to choose projects that would enable the reader to use the methodologies presented herein as a 'stepping-stone' to modelling, with some adjustments and modifications, the many other variants and types of Churchill tanks. This book presents the reader with several Churchill variants using the plastic Tamiya kit as the skeletal basis of the projects with several after-market conversion kits and accessories and also demonstrates scratch-building techniques. In each chapter, the construction will be described in detail. Explanations will be provided on various paint applications with hints and tips on making models look more realistic using several weathering techniques. It will also offer methods to personalize a model with accessories and figures with suggestions on ways of creating an atmospheric setting to accommodate the model.
