Thanks Mick, I've now finished the lift brackets for the hull and turret, headlights, taillights, and side brackets.

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news Alwyn, but you've got the front transmission bolt strip upside down.

That was cut off of the Heng Long Sherman top hull, therefore the raw saw cut needs to be at the top, not against the transmission cover.

Thanks Mick, :{ :{ easy fix. :D Bit of a lack of care and attention methinks, next time I'll check the reference pictures before jumping in with both feet. :crazy: :haha:
