Amazing work! The problem with PE is: Even when we can see it, we don't see it under paint and weathering... |

That ammo box and belt looks good as do the interior bits. B) I like a bit or entire interior, makes me feel I’m getting my money’s worth . If you enjoyed adding the interior bits then that’s all that matters  |

Well said Si, and thanks for all the comments.
I put the PE down to good, solid, practical experience. That's what matters, am I right?

Tommy it's up to you fella, as you said it's something that will only partly seen if at all. I say, if the interior is there then use it  . |

I am pleased to announce the completion of the build and priming. I was getting a bit bored of the PE by the end so with the machine gun mounting I lost patience and settled for the out of the box. Still used the PE ammo box and belt of ammo for the added realism. I’ll give it a couple of days and then start the painting.  It’s only when you build a model that you can get an appreciation of how claustrophobic it must have been for the crews. In Brazen Chariots he describes how the gunner had to climb under the gun to get out. The space is just so small. |
