The turret tool box is removed for easy access to the<br />

stuff inside. Note on the engine deck the C-rations,<br />

ammo & tool boxes, rolled tow cable and hose, tow<br />

chain, etc. Each individual item needs to be carefully<br />

painted, weathered, shaded, and highlighted, which is a<br />

lot of work (almost as much as the tank itself), but looking<br />

at the final result, it is absolutely worthwhile.<br />

A perfect shot for showing-off all of the various stowage<br />

items (all from the VP line). Note the gun calibration<br />

rods, made from plastic rod, and the pack of Lucky<br />

Strikes (and lighter) on the turret. These colorful items<br />

jump out of the drabness of the tank, drawing the eye<br />

into the details.<br />
