Looking realy good mate , i have just fitted the .50 to the turret and have found a small problem ! The weapon is sitting to close to the rear of the turret which means there is hardly any room for the top cover gunner to fit behind it .

Oliver, I noted that you do not instal de side windows yet.

I had a big problem whit mine - Look:



I noted it after remove the paint masks... Did you note problems with your transparent parts?

Another question: Will you tinted the turret "windows"?

Thanks!

Thanks for your comments !















Good : nice modern kit, no mastic ! interior if you build closed,first box with good bonus ! good notice, photo etched

Bad : styrene hard ! interior if you build open lol, no name on the tyres (as the last modern kit !)

Nice canadian version ...
My next buil is no military...McLaren MP4-12C GT3 "Gulf"

Very good model And a nice couple at the last photo too. You have to multiply them and add a MaxxPro, Cougar, Buffalo etc.
