They look like spare shells to me Andrew.

The shells are stored in the turret!!! Also these are to be painted dark green. I wondered if they are either part of the cooling system or form some part of the armour

Cheers, Andrew

Apologies to Patrick (dubster72) I think you are right, a quick search of the internet reveals spare ammo canisters were stored in the sides of the lower hull!!!!

Any how, heres how they look....

Very nice work ;)

The detail level is magnificent for a 1/35 model :eek:

Hi Andy

Sorry, I totally missed this build until now.

The Academy armour kits really are quite detailed aren't they. I remember years back using Academy M10 suspension and wheels to detail a Sherman V I was building as a kit bash (before the days of Dragon and Tasca super kits).

I really like the Achilles tank destroyer and you're making a great job of this kit.

Looking forward to further progress.

Cheer

Cheers guys for the kind comments. I was very impressed with the level of detail and quality of fit, its almost Tamiya standard in my opinion

Cheers, Andrew
