Challenger 2 Turret Nearly There

The turret is now almost finished with the addition of the smoke dischargers and a new mantlet rear cover which I made from lead foil & plastic strip. I've also glued the barrel in place at this stage as the locating pin is rather small. This way I get a good strong bond, something which would be difficult if you add the barrel after painting. 

A few more bits left to do on the turret now such as a blank firing adaptor for the GPMG and then I can start work on the side skirts.
