As I said to Mike I had forgot to fit the front mudguard support blocks well I got some bench time so I've rectified it.

Made the blocks from white square rod.

Pete, have just had a look in my WWP Abrams in detail book and the scopes on the one in there are a red/orange colour
I'm very sorry I did reply Simon, thanks for the help.

Hi Pete - like the set of factory photos :thumb2: Would make a great boxed dio with mirrors at the ends to make it look longer than it is

Interesting that the bare hull appears to be made from rusty metal - like 1970's British Leyland cars :smiling3:

Anti-slip looks good

Pete,

Looks brilliant now - think you're on the right road with just the right amount of detail and not going overboard. Looking forward to the finish, will you use the hairy stick or hissy stick???? :thinking:

Paul.

Looking nice Pete. So much detail, nice bumpy bits (yes I'm not really an armour person) to highlight.
