Thanks Paul,

The replacement cabin is great, just go easy on cutting away the excess and you should achieve a good fit, same with the little riveted bar that goes under the front. Judicial sanding and test fitting. probably better off just buying the cheaper Male sets for the Male and Female corrections as the Vickers are no better than the kit ones.
MR Modelbau have told me that they are at some point going to release a Mk II set, they do not know when as they are very busy with other projects at this moment.

You are welcome Paul, The Piper came from the Revell 1/35 WWII Scottish Infantry, Stripped him of all his equipment and modified the shirt a little, replaced the Helmet with one from the Tamiya WWI figures set and his Pistol and Small pack will come from that set also. Kilt will be finished this weekend.

Thanks Kamil, I wish there was an interior so I could leave one off, hopefully some aftermarket company will come out with one, or I will buy the Meng Mk V with interior so I can do something similar to show the sponsons detailed and weathered.
