Finally. Yup, need to add some cable on the deck going to them. Damn this "hobby".

A measured length of solder will bend to a most authentic shape simulating the trunking carrying the headlight wiring, Just about all of us have done this on a Tiger 1 and it really does look "RIGHT"

Nice, I've more solder than I hope to ever need.

Still progressing folk but slowly now as I'm doing the boring work of blending the two pieces of deck together. Almost done that finally. Then its the final pre paint assembly, move one gearbox a mm or two and paint.

Some more interesting activity to report on. No backing out now. Getting closer. Not too shabby. Now to fix my earlier cock up of the drivers view slit.

Oops! It got painted... Base coat on, now deciding on pattern.
Also making small adjustments to the positioning of the gearboxes as one was sitting askew and a touch high.

great, things are progressing well, soon to be continued?

Thanks Jofaur, moving along now for sure. I'm painting fiddly bits, sorting electrics and figuring out why my turret doesn't rotate 360 degrees anymore.
Really need to decide on a camouflage pattern.

je comprends pourquoi ma tourelle ne tourne plus à 360 degrés.
on this old model, it is normal, it is necessary either to turn the existing stopper and to redo the teeth which are missing? either the simplest, change with a new 360 ° crown

Nope, it turned 360 before I took it apart for paint etc.

I must have boobed somewhere in the reassembly.
