      Cheers Steve, I've built about 6 or 7 sets of him back been trying to get hold of you on Facebook but with no luck.

          Hi I've had to revisit the Leo I've removed the stowage from the turret, scratch built the recovery cable brackets, made new recovery cable the second one got lost on exercise in some field , added the slots in the mud flaps and reflector the hooks are there but very faint, made up second antenna using a acupuncture needle and white rod, I've recently joined a Leopard private FB group with Richard Pearce, their stuff is absolutely amazing and got some useful tips and advice hence this post.

                Excellent additions, lifting this build higher and higher….

                    Cheers John, if it wasn't that horrible green plastic you look a lot better and it does you only got to look at it and you leave a mark good coat of artex will cure that.

                      Thank you Tim it's a basic very kit so if anyone added anything it would improve it, just my level.

                            Sorry completely missed the start of this. That's coming on very nicely indeed. Love the add-ons and scratch work.
