Starting with some PE ... just for relax....

Hey Maurizio, I have the same kit stashed for a future build. I must say that you have taken a nice kit to a higher standard, and your attention to all those wrong and missing details is considerably well done. I look forward to seeing more of your build as you travel down this road.

Thank you Bob!

HEre are some pics of the new rear floor made of plasticard.

New floor made of plasticard:

I like you interior work as I'm doing the same in my project.

HI Caveman,
good job mate!

Here is the way I've tough about steering the wheels.

Wow! Fantastic work.

Thanks!

here is a picture showing the inner rear of the hull:

The kit central cover has a squared section while the real AFV has a rectangular one. I've cut the original one and glued some plasticard pieces.

This is the M2 bipod after the detailing job on the lower part of it.

Frontal part of the internal hull modified:





Rear done.



Genral view with the central tunnel

Making the side part with plasticard and checking the correct position.

all i can say is very detailed work,very nicely done.

working on the turret.
the .50 (12.7mm) M2 MG (showed) will be cut for being placed inside. It is coming from my spare parts box. A M60C .30 (7.62mm) - not showed - will be placed aside.
I'll use the brass aftermarket barrel for the .30 MG NOT for the M2!

Dry fitting:

I need something easy to do ... so Fire Extinguishers!!!

Rear left wall



the red line must be cut.

Another cover to think about... (dry fitted and not yet glue)



Starting to think about the turret basket taking some dimensions inside the hull

I need to find the turret dimensions and the correct place inside the hull.

I've found this PE set partially used for a previous model.
The PE circle is perfect for the turret floor.
