Well DKLM finally have the Shot Kal Gimmel back in stock. Pulled the trigger and ordered it. I am looking forward to this build in my future. Now I just have to calculate how many bottles of Israeli sand grey I will need to paint it and get another Tamiya Centurion.

Two bottles of paint is more then enough. It's a beautiful kit you will enjoy it. Mine is one of my favorite tanks.

It has always been a favourite Cent of mine. When I saw your post it was a given that I would get it. I’m sure it will become a favourite of mine as well. May hit you up for advice when the build happens. Your \s looks awesome.

Absolutely.

It's a pretty straightforward build. Building the base Centurion is the hard part.

I changed a few parts like the barrel. I wanted an unshielded L7 so I order one from RJMS. But otherwise everything provided is well executed aside from some very minor rubbing of the turret on tool box ERA blocks. Easy fix with a bit of sanding.

Thanks
I have built the Cent so this will be my second one. I also have RJMS L7 barrel so I will have that option as well. Not looking forward to building those Cent gear boxes again.
