Hi,
A couple of short vids showing the gun elevation and depression and how i achieved it if anyones interested.
The second link shows the telescopic linkage.

I start with a question, why would we not be interest. Your works are something to be in awe of and this one is no exception. Another top notch piece of engineering

Yes, this video was short and clearly showed how you set up the gun elevation. I learn from these, so I (and likely others) are interested. Thank you.

Hi.
Glad you found it useful, a different way of elevation etc for sure.

Added the additional gunners turret side armour and the hull front additional armour plus the 2 side opening doors
( concealed hinges are all on the inside.)
Also added 360 degree rotaion to the turret.

Now to work out the secondary armourment of the gunners MG, this is on a circular raised platform above the hatch, it will have to be in 3 pieces as there is a commanders periscope built into it plus the gunners hatch hinges pass through the ring when the hatch is opened.
Then the 2 hatches, these are huge and dome shaped, so will have to cast these from resin i think to get the shape.

Engine deck and cooling grills started.

Good grief Charlie Brown!!!
Huge amount of work and it’s easy to see the results.
What mesh did you use for the covers ? One type has a very tight & wave’y weave.

Hi Mr Bix.
Thank you for your continued interest and feed back.
Which mesh are you refering to plse.
The brass one is well brass mesh picked up at a model engineering show, the silver one is stainless steel mesh.
Cheers.
