Churchill mkIII 1/48 Aurora

AURORA is a classic kit manufacturer mostly known for its production of off-beat and licensed subjects. However beyond the well-known (and much in demand with collectors) kits AURORA also produced a most interesting line of military vehicles in 1/48 which were often well done. This article is intended to reevaluate this line and therefore for each model a brief appraisal is given.
I would like to thank Andrew P. Yanchus / Star Runn for supplying many unpublished before pictures of never-issued items and remembering informations from the good old days at Aurora.
