Added the Upper Armor to the M10 Turret






Welded seams are stretched plastic sprue, glued in place and "welded" by pyro-burner (with my Light switch dimmer tempature adjuster).

Thanks Ian,

when I bought the kit at a garage sale I knew is was aa "Plain Jane" model. Very Basic.

I've repaced the Running gearand wheels with an extra Tamiya set I had and am planing to detail the exterior. The Top armor is not only interesting, but saves me time and effort in fixing up a very poor turret interior.

Thanks,

Neill
