Hectic week, now completed, phew, just back from JEC Composite show in Paris and rushed through to get the model up for IDF collection. Magach 7A.
Couldn't get the Legend conversion turret to sit properly, so have to redo the turret ring below with plastic cards and putty. Shag man!
The basket at the rear of the turret is made of photo etch vertical plates and steel wires bent with a lot of pain in the fingers. Strong plying but with delicate touch needed.
Finally I added the hatch with copper rod and other handles all with copper rods. The semi circular hooks are simple to make, I coil the thing round a plastic sprue of the correct diameter, then cut it, then press them flat with a big plier!
