Tamiya 1/48 Churchill Mk.VII Crocodile Kit Overview

The Tamiya 1/48 Churchill Mk.VII Crocodile faithfully recreates a notable British WWII tank in a small scale. The Mk.VII upgrade brought thicker armour and a 75mm gun to address earlier vulnerabilities on the battlefield.

The Crocodile conversion replaced the front machine gun with a flamethrower mechanism. The flamethrower could reach over 80 metres and used a trailing vehicle to carry fuel and compressed gas, creating the Crocodile's characteristic profile and combat role.

Suitability for Builders and Displays

This compact kit appeals to modellers who like accurate military subjects without a massive build. Parts detail and fit are aimed at hobbyists who want a neat display piece or to include in a small diorama showcasing armoured warfare subjects.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires glue

Beginners with patience can complete it, but the small parts call for steady hands and basic modelling tools. Consider starting with simpler kits first if you are new to plastic modelling.
Model acrylics or enamels in Olive Drab, Dark Earth and matching period tones work well. Use reference photos to recreate authentic wartime camouflage patterns.
Yes, the trailer unit that carried the Crocodile's fuel and propellant is modelled as part of the kit and is included in the assembly steps.
Use washes, drybrushing and pigment powders to simulate dirt, wear and chipped paint. Focus on tracks, lower hull and the trailer for convincing effects.
