Thanks for posting the images and providing the details Andy......it looks very nicely detailed.
There is another fitting for the turret that I don't see that you have included.....it is mounted in the location of the small rectangular access hatch to the right side of the boxes.
Get in touch if you need more info.

Jim,
I have to talk to Sid about that. I dont mind if he will be selling the conversion aswell if he wants to. For now he is just helping me with resin and casting process along with other conversions I am working on (Chinook etc.)
Jason,
You are probably talking about the cooling vent for electronics compartment - that part will also be included. Since there are pics of Leopards with and without it - the part will be optional.

Hallo, Andy,
I support Jason. What you show us looks carefully done. I'm impatiently looking forward.
Can I order it directly from you and will you send it to Germany? How is payment to be executed?
PayPal would be an easy way, at least from my side.
Please, let us know.
Harald
I definitely want one set.

Hi Andy,
I'm just wondering whether you have any more updates on your Leopard 2A6M CND detail set? (Hopefully I'm not stepping on any toes)
Cheers!

Its coming along
smoke dischargers will be included - I just did't have time yet to put them on. Also there will be a support arm for turret slat armor included in the set - the Eduard one is not correct.

Andy,
I am very impressed with the work even from just looking at the parts in the images.
I very much look forward to doing a review of the conversion set. It is great to see very high quality master making coming from Canadians and of Canadian AFVs.
Thanks for the update.
