I have been working on this but at a glacial pace. I have managed to add all the tie downs now. The kit exhaust was very basic indeed and the halves were not a good fit.

So only one thing for it make a new one so with some evergreen tube, ally tube and off cuts of etch I came up with this.

Finally just for a bit of interest I made a new locker from plastic sheet so I could show it open I will add some junk later.

Lovely details Scottie :coffee: the new locker is a nice touch, cheers
 
Exhaust and locker look very good. Exhaust is a real improvement. It's often quicker and better to scratch a replacement than try to clean up a poor part like that exhaust.

A big shout out to Neil for printing me some excellent Italian jerry cans, the detail and finish is superb. I made some racks from brass sheet and the etch straps came with the kit.

The Breda 37 MG tripod was at best very basic. So I added a bit of detail 17 parts later I came up with this.

I can attest to Neils' skill, as he's done US (both water & gasoline) & German jerry cans (both loose & strapped), bazookas, their rockets, pioneer tools (both US & German), Notec lamps, & panzerfausts, all in 1/87.

I wish I had the skills but printing is a dark art mate.
 
Late to the party
VERY nice so far. Must get around to my two 28mm jobs, including one in pink... Sorry, 'Amaranth Red'
Never noticed the plethora of little handles all over the shop before, but I suppose they make sense for all the tie-downs

You're a gent, many thanks!

The racks and 3d prints are looking excellent Scottie, adds a lot to the model :coffee: have fun
