Tiny TOW Tweaks

Some more small improvements now and I started with adding some straps using lead foil on the front wing and added a new strap and better fuel can cap to the jerry can. The antenna mount came from the spares box too. The fording exhaust was next for a bit of surgery as the kit item really bears no resemblance to the real thing.

After digging around in the spares I came up with a suitable bit of etch for the screening. The moulded kit detail was removed and a piece of plastic rod added in it's place. The etch was rolled to the right diameter and attached to the model via a couple of brackets. The exhaust looks way better than the original part.









Here's how the original looks,
