Rear hook position is changed by belly armor.


for MG's

resin part
made hole deeper lil bit.
MG's gun barrel is able to inside part.


loader's hatch.
very hard and difficult in this time.
because very tight balance. hatch,around hatch part, PE part, make hole.
there is no guide.


ammo box. from AFV club
belt's details are speaker cable.
strip outside.


Because the space can be done, it is necessary to bury it.


chain curtain's parts

Hay like your idea for adding the hook-ring for the ball, I've got to try that. Thanks M8.

You have done a very good job of the painting. if you do a search on here for anti slip there was a topic on applying it to (I believe) an Israeli tank, this may be of use to you in the future.
