A bit of an update. I had to miss work today after injuring my back lifting boxes, so I spent a few hours working on the tank.
First the air cleaners are mostly complete, they are nowhere near the quality of those some of you guys have made but I am quite pleased with them. This is my first modeling in quite a few years. They need a little smoothing out, any ideas on how to do that?

Next I ground down the HL mantelet to resemble the earlier one using photos of tiger 131 as a guide I also added the ends on the lifting lugs. Do the lugs look too long to you?

I added more welds in a few spots and put in the drivers vision port, added the 2 little holes above it and filled them in to resemble welds. Also a handle like on 131.

Finally I added the wire for the Bosch lights and a little detail to the wire. Tiger 131 doesn't have the lights but I like the look and assume it had them at some point.

I am a little heavy handed with the CA glue

but I think it will look ok once primer is added.
I am learning lots from this process and can't wait to do more. Any suggestions, comments etc welcomed. Cheers Mark
