She looks great! Is there still work to be done on her? And what kind(s) of tanks is she carrying? They look like Matildas, but it's hard to tell for sure.

Not quite, a little weathering and minor touches to be done. Tanks are 2 Honeys (Stuarts), 2 Matildas, 3 Valentines.

Then there is damage to repair from sailing and accidents. Now she has gained a few scars, and some parts need replacing. Added the bridge across the ramp entrance, damaged to bow so repairs, anchor davit knocked off so replacing. decided to alter drive an steering to be more realistic, single rudder and all three screws turning the same way

Just saw this build. I just finished a kit LCT mk5. Built in 1944 in california in 3 months  in 3 pieces and then shipped to new guinea for the invasion. 3 pieces off loaded and then joined together.

My father skippered the lct1302 as a 22 year old. I built the kit thinking of him.

Interesting how the design changed over the course of the war.
