The armor around the commander's copula turned out awesome.

Thanks Barry! Yeah never thought i get that result once I put things together.

I agree this looks fantastic and the add on armour is superb

Cheers Carl. Reason why i go for TUSK, all these addons makes it look more like angry an tank haha


Last night i was working on MRE box. I think i got the right size for it.

I wasnt happy with my work on 2nd gunner shield window. I think the shields are quite too tall, windows are too big too.

So i decided to remake it again and downsize it a little bit.

I dont have much resource here where i am. I just make do whatever i have in the office to do it. Scissors, ruler and a pencil would do









Im very happy with the size. I think it has the right scale to the rest of the shields i made. Imma happy camper!



Also, im contemplating whether or not to apply slat armour at the back. I've done it tho. Not 100% accurate. Probably about 95% accurate?

You do? so you reckon i should attach the rear slat armour then?

Slat armor has been tested (but not adopted) on the Abrams in Iraq

Look awesome but.

MATO's sprocket. If you live in Australia, buy stuff from here. They have variety of HL upgrades. Been shopping with them since i got my Leopard 2A6 when it first released

Hi All,

I need a source to find good image reference for turret's 3rd gunner as show below



Could anyone please help me finding it? I couldnt find it in google especially you dont know what they call it.

I want to see if i can build one from scratch. Also, is the machine gun the same type as the main one as shown below?




Thanks in advance

Nexusys,

Here's the quick way. I have this set but will be build mine up using brass for the mounts. It is a nice set and gives you what you'll need.

I have not seen pictures of the M1A2 with the Counter Sniper - Anti Material Mount but that does not mean it doesn't exist.
