Heya, Folks,

Does anyone have close up photos of the smoke discharger arrays on the Spanish Centuaro? I build mainly WWII and Vietnam-era armor so I'm not sure whether the dischargers are all lined up perfectly straight or whether they are angled outward.

The kit smoke discharger mount has these vague slots which could work either way. It is hard to determine this from the online references (mainly the awesome Primeportal) on line. Judging from what I can find online, it appears as if the first discharger is oriented forward and the subsequent units are each angled out slightly.

And I've looked at both Mike Land and Brian Murdoch's build ups (both of which have been proving to be extremely helpful ) --- it's just a little tough to determine from the angle of the turret pictures (not to mention the applique armor).

As always, many thanks, folks!

Regards and Aloha,

Johnny B.
