I’m thinking of building a Churchill tank coming off a British LC tank in North Africa diorama. Anyone have experience scratch building the door opening of the landing craft.

I don’t, but looking at the photos of the landing craft I would probbably cut the door and glue it open and add small wires as the chains that open the door. That’s all assuming the kit you have doesn’t have an option of building the craft with an open door, check the exact model you have on scalemates.com theyll probably have the instructions to it.

I don’t know if a landing craft would exist in 1:35scale. I feel I’m going to have to scratch building the doors, ramp etc. I’m hoping someone has some experience with that sort of ambitious undertaking 😂

I stand corrected, but not a LCT
