Cheers Pete-dude . As for the gun, well after I sent you one turret, I must still have another 4 somewhere . All those conversions I've done on 55's and 62's, the darned things should be dropping out of the drawers

It's amazing what one finds in a spares box. Way to go!

Right, I just had to see how the new wheelage fitted . They didn't, well at first anyway. After I shimmed all of them and reduced the inner diameter on the front wheels, they then played game . I have also done some details on the doors, before they just looked too bland . After looking at the pics I took at the Panzer Museum, I have noticed a few things I still need to add to the inside . I shall get on that shortly

Cheers Joe . I'm taking them to work on Monday, they'll get the good news with a pneumatic sander there . That'll flatten the bottoms out rather quick and easier than sanding here at home

Good thinking Paul. I used to make models all the time at work. One of my jobs was making mirrors in what I called the bunker. Spent many an happy hour making a mess in there.

I'll only do little jobs at work Joe, not much bloody time for anything else and I don't want some turd saying "what the feck are you doing" . Just sorted out the rear doors .

Paul, this looks sensational and I think you won the battle vs. a Skif product. Nice work on the wheels, too.
