It is a frustrating kit to build at times and I had the most issues with he turret as well. Stick at it, you'll get there in the end and as Maus45 said use reference photos ifin doubt. It does build into a very nice model and a very cool looking tank and I felt a real sense of achievement when I finished mine. I still have get around to weathering and detailing it but thats beside the point. [:-]
