Outfitting con'tSo tracks are done, time to start finishing off the superstructure.
Rear plate and crew hatch from an Academy Bradley fitted.
Took a bit of massaging and in the end it fitted so well I could have made it opening ....
But then I'd have to add an interior so ..... nooooooooooo!
The top hull got a couple of random vents/inspection hatches from the donor Sturmtiger.
I got a comment that they looked a bit clumsey compared to the rest of the design but I didn't have the spares from anything better to add.
One of the downsides of a limited budget and thin spares box when whiffing.
Also at this stage it underwent a field upgrade with the radio operator getting a kugelblend mg mounting again from the Sturmtiger.
Attacked the PE too, making up a rear bin from the Griffon Jagdpanther set to go on the rear plate.
Tricky ..... my first go at big PE and I split the bin when I scored the strenghtening ribs, since founf out thats a common newbie error.
