Gday all
her are some progress shots of my M4 including some new additions of the rear stowage....










What else can I add to the rear deck? These objects are only placed in their positions, but I reckon I should add a couple more things... Any ideas for me?



Thanks
Brad
Oh, and looking at the pics close up, I can see that the PE vent covers are a little big!

Nearly forgot... Can anyone explain a situation when the 'blackout' lights would be used? Have a couple of sets of them now, and was wondering what setting the tank woiuld need to be portrayed in, in order to be accurate...?

Black out were for night driving in the forward areas. Most tank crews that I have talked to simply painted over the lights, if the glass was intact any how. I tried using them with my WWII jeep once. Not a whole lotta fun. Great detail on the model!
