Looks very nice indeed.
But if you look at the postings for these when they first came out you will see that the turret leaves much to be desired as far as it's height from the hull and its shape at its forward end which is much to vertical giving it almost a flat sided appearance. Both problems can be solved with a lot of cutting and refinishing though without going to the cost of buying a correctly shaped resin turret casting.
