I do recognise the name but not 100% certain..........i left MM back in the mid 2000`s approx so if it was after that then possibly not ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) I joined MM around 2009. I don’t think he joined until a few years later.

Some trimming and sanding and got the engine vents in place. Doesn’t look much but took about two hours to get them done! ![](https://i.ibb.co/vk9nnPp/0665-C611-0-E02-4945-89-F8-9-E3200-A33029.jpg)

Got some more bits done..... Cut out the Louvre’ son the back deck..... ![](https://i.ibb.co/JpHvVHq/FD474264-8-FF1-4-E3-F-8722-3775-E58-C526-A.jpg)
Made up the PE replacement. These have brackets (not yet fitted) that go on so they can swivel about! ![](https://i.ibb.co/6g758c7/16367-B47-181-D-4-C52-AA49-CC09-D5-B911-B2.jpg) Cut out the engine hatch as I want the option to look inside ![](https://i.ibb.co/h22tyKb/A8208502-A60-C-47-B5-ADBA-0-D71-A169-CC65.jpg) fitted grab rails to turret sides and rear... ![](https://i.ibb.co/nbK9GDp/0-AD800-F2-2-D0-B-41-A8-93-D4-7-EA3-CE91-BD1-C.jpg)
getting there slowly, finding a decent ref picture of the rear deck is providing a PITA 🤬 Thats it for now, more soon hopefully

True, and once I've touched the PE, the kit part is suddenly a better representation! Orsom pefication!

Nice work indeed, those engine grills are a massive improvement on the kit parts.
