Used the base that comes on the m51 turret and robbed one off a Pershing. Replaced the ribbed but with a small spring (bought mine from Cornwall model boats). The antennas them selves are just styrene tube sanded slightly to taper toward the end.

Hi CH,
That looks top notch.The coulor I'm going for is the IDF ua20 that was the coulor of the tanks from 61-73.
TAMIYA paint,
XF-59 Desert yellow,33%
XF-57 Buff. 33%
XF-20 Medium grey,33%
The lifecouor paint dose the couloir ready mixed. Brian...
I used the full jar of the three couloir so had lots of paint to get a overall Finnish....
If you can't get the paint PM me with your address and I will send some to you
