Much better then the original. When doing this I realized that the old Mato turret is to narrow at its bottom also :problem: . Figured fixing that would be to much of a job so the sides will be not quite as sloped as they should be but still will look closer to a real T23 turret.
The left side will be next :D .

Mr Greengiant your quite a talented artist your ability to go and make a cut and take it apart and make it look as if nothing happened and produce a better result is uncanny

I figured that I was going to have to do it eventually. Was surprised that no one attempted it before me, when it came out everyone, myself included, modified the turret height. Glad it was plastic.
People buying the new "improved" full metal M4A3 version with 76mm main gun get the same incorrect turret shape with a muzzle brake on the main gun. Wouldn't want to attempt to modify that :haha: .
