Gary,

I don't think you are nit picking. I have the same pic's that you posted it just didn't dawn on me that mesh pattern was done in any particular way. Pointing out these kind of details will make for a better model in the future.

I like the weathering and finish. That said, I have to admit to knowing little about Israeli tanks, but it looks to me as if they borrowed US style headlight assemblies. Shouldn't there be an IR light on either side? And those sleeping bags on the turret bin, would they not be attached to those tie downs?

The headlights are kit parts, I'm no expert either. There are tie down loops under the bed rolls.

Like the Shot Terry. I can't add anything intelligent to the comments so I won't I am a big fan of Centurions (strangely enough I still haven't finished an AFV club one but I have one started).

Gary kcamps has a web site?

ps. your PMs work on there ... lol.

Nice job Terry. Nice weathering, and I don't have a problem with the rolls on the stowage bin, as it appears the same in the photos below.
However, there are a few inaccuracies that can be easily fixed:
The fire extinguishers were the newer cylindrical style by '73. They can be taken from the old Tamiya Merk I kit.
The antenna arrangement is incorrect-turret part N8 shouold not even be installed until the late 70's. The correct placement of the rear antenna is the left rear turret plate location.
The conduit for the smoke dischargers was removed along with the smoke dischargers, so they should be shaved off.
Good call on the IR lights, but that's been addressed.
I have a few dozen photos of Cents from the October War, but none with black front fenders. Rear-yes. IMHO, the only black ones came later when the IDF added the rubber fender extensions. During this time frame there WAS a tendency to paint the turret lift lugs, towing hooks, and spare track black, but this was not universal.
Lastly, the square brackets on the turret (parts O8) are for stowing the antenna bags. I've never seen anything else put in them. Of course the crew could conceivably do as they wish, but the track busting tolls seem like an odd choice.
Like I said, nice build, but those are the changes that stick out for me.
This photo sums up a few of the above points nicely:

Thanks Bravo
