Or get some small hatches from Ludwig's - Christian sold me some.

Sadly, Nick only does the welded hull with small hatches (I have a couple), his cast hull unfortunately has large hatches (Ad Lav has one up for sale in the For Sale section).
Ludwig has a small hatch cast hull (Exhibitionbrute and I have one).
And Woz sells a small hatch cast in his shapeways shop (don't know anyone with one)

Mr dgsselkirk

You have polished that up very nice. My early a1 uses a resin top but I do have a mato one. I was thinking of sticking the mato low bustle turret on it and making it a Canadian firefly. Mainly because I can’t be bothered to chop it up to fix the bad bits and the track armour would hide a lot of it
