RE: M1A1 Conversion
I spent an hour or so today trying to decide how to make the upper and lower hulls fit together and I wound up having to cut both in order to get close. For the Abrams upper hull, I removed everything that was sticking down with my trusty Dremel, replaced the fellow in the turret with an Elite Forces soldier and cut and labeled the wires.
I hated to have to chop up the lower hull of the Leo, but it had to be done. All of the cuts were made with a cutting disc, so I will need to go back and even everything up and make it all smooth, later. Now, I need to start cutting some sections of Plastruct to make the coupling of the two hulls more believable. I have a long way to go and gaps to fill, but I think that I will be able to pull this off, even with my mediocre skills. [sm=thumbup.gif]
