Thank you kindly chaps ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) , and I also apologize for my slacking lately ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) . I've had a modelling slump, but I think it was a little one ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . Today I have added a few bits to the turret, also some colour and wear was added to the cupola. After rummaging around in spares cupboard, looking for something else, I found some brass smoke grenade launchers. These were also added and also the wiring for them. Why the hell can't I just build a kit straight from the box, instead of messing around with bits I can hardly see ![(rofl)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/rofl.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53371240608_8ded0ea63f_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53371240443_efe720c84a_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53371052331_3429c5c45e_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53370147467_3abb5db3e8_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53370147457_576f3c175f_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53371367204_9980526845_c.jpg)

For a man who can hardly see that turret is looking pretty much the bizniz my friend. The smoke dischargers are a work of patience holy mother of turrets!!!

Nice dischargers and the debate between the enjoyment of doing it and the enjoyment of the result!

"Why the hell can't I just build a kit straight from the box, instead of messing around with bits I can hardly see ![(rofl)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/rofl.png) ." I have started to ask the same question again & again ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) I try to to tell myself that "I want to give the model my personal touch" (but not very convincingly ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) ). I think it is a kind of masochism... Anyway, brilliant work as always!

I think Karih nailed it !! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Great work as usual Paul ! Did you check your references to see if the wiring of the smoke launchers has the correct width ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) ?

Nice extra detailing there Mr. B. Love the addition to the smoke dischargers. Small suggestion regarding the commanders' cupola. The cupola has small holes all around to get rid of excess rain water. So you can drill some if you want to. ![](https://i.ibb.co/q9k8Ym9/DSC04363.jpg) I have a book (The Modellers' guide to the Tiger Tank) which has a template in it to use for the location of the holes, worked out a treat) ![](https://i.ibb.co/Z2jPjhM/DSC04356.jpg) Looking forward to next couple of updates.
