Oh Ya! The turret on your dio looks a little fake. It looks like its from Star Wars or something like that. Just my two cents.

These turrets actually came of captured french Renault R35 tanks. When the Germans invaded France in 1940, they captured alot of these and used them for various things, such as training panzer crews and some, like in the dio ive made, were used to reinforce defense lines by using their turrets as part of a bunker.
