On a Dutch site someone is doing this one as well, but not in that urban camo... He mentioned the rubber matts on top of the turret, I notice in the urban camo version those are just painted in colors.. will you be doing them in rubber black or colors? A suggestion there was to use the inner tube of a bicycle tyre... And if you are intrersted, there is a great ( I think) video series on youtube on the official Dutch army channel about the Dutch Army participating in Enhanced Forward Presence (eFP), some great footage of the Leopards in it, if you make screenshots you can use them for great detailing. Youtube series called Tankers

Got this one back out and making some progress on the turret for now. Not all very obvious, but trust me it's there. Burt, I'm going to try and paint them as part of the camo rather than picking them out. Or at least that's the plan for now.

That's a beast, the turret is almost as big as the hull. Have fun Paul!

cheers all. The 0.5 RWS, a little bit of PE and some other finishing details to be added to the turret and that will be done. I've also been picking away on the hull with most of the engine deck detyail (minus PE) already in place- sorry no pics. Maybe at the weekend  This one comes with both Bandy and Working track. Haven't decided yet. I'll trey a bit of the working track tonight and see how I get on. I HAVE however decided that I will be doing the Urban scheme - just need to make sure i have the right colours in stock. Actually looking forward to that bit. Well TTFN, off to my last day in the job that shat on me... and away for a coupled of Nights with Mrs H for decompression time ahead of starting the new job next Thursday. Hennessy Out.
