Hi all,
I think I'm done with the turret except for the barrel and the AA sight. The ID plate at the rear of the bustle will be added later on.
I decided to show a vehicle with both smoke grenade boxes on the right side. The arm between the barrel and the sight has been redone as Tamiya one is only good for a early Bradley. Some other additions are visible on the pics. A couple more are in the campaign gallery.
Comments welcome and please feel free to point missing "obvious" details.

Looking great from where im standing.
No biggie but it looks like your TOW launcher styrene sheets need a little refitting or cementing.

Hi Jazza,
I think you mean the one in the upper corner. Here is the reference picture from Rob Motorpool that shows this piece of metal is not flush with the "box".
