Michael,

Very nice job with the fenders!

The Alan kit is rather nice overall like you wrote. A small problem are the insides of the hatches. The kit side hatches are way too thin and have incorrect locking mechanisms (like Tiger front hatch. Ought to be more like the Panther rear turret hatch. I wonder why Aber went wrong with these, when the Beograde tank has a hatch open?). The turret hatch should have too separate locking latches on sides and a large head cushion in between.

There are some photos of the 5 vehicles in use by the 4th(?, memory!) Polizei Pz Kompanie. They too were first dark grey and later painted in dark yellow. One of these seem to have been in Aberdeen before being scrapped.


Cheers,

Pekka
