Ivan;
Looking really nice your work is very precise. What are you using for the anti slip? It is very fine and very well defined. Cheers and looking forward to more progress.

I can see at least 50 parts that look like they would sacrifice themselves to the carpet monster. Your pe is beautiful! What are you using for the anti-slip surface?

Very nice so far. You've added so many details, I'd feel bad if I didn't tell you to add the hatch lock mechanism on the TC hatch. The very last photo in my album shows that detail. Also, I think you might want to replace the PE driver's hatch armor with one from plastic. The diameter on that Voyager one is too small. Otherwise, looking very good.

Hi, this is how I do antislip:
High pressure+acrylic color (I use Tamiya)+and higher temp in room. Just spray from longer distance than usual. All you need is that the color goes dry in the air and anti slip is done. Simple but maybe need little practice
I will leave driver hatch armor, because its to late for corrections, to many PE parts its on Paladin, and I do not want to tear something.
Little update, hope you like it

It is looking great so far. I would still address the driver's hatch though. It should also have a few 0.020 shims between the kit hatch and the armor plate. It is spaced armor, not flat on the hatch. It would be a shame to put all the work you have into it and not have it accurate.

Hi, here is new update. I finally find and buy Voyager barrel, and that was great opportunity for making corrections on bore evacuator. Missing welds, it'll fix soon. Is this enough right?
@Nikita: its AFV windshield lens
And driver hatch is down, ready for corrections

Personally, I'm glad you decided to correc the hatch.
If your question is about the bore evacuator, the rear portion does not have a slope, it is squared off. There is also a smaller ring behind the larger ring in the rear.
I know models can make horrible references, but I can't post any of my actual Paladin photos right now.

Well...the photos you linked to (including Rob's own photo!) seem to illustrate his point? Or do you mean his model photo is good reference too?

I don't know where I found your photo, but it shows my point.
Scarab did the right thing, the bore have an angled finish.
I don't know if I'm stupid or I'm going blind, I'm no expert, but this is not a 90 degree angle in my opinion.
