This required a 1mm hole through and into the hull, fitted with a pin to the base of the dish so the it was more secure, but could be taken off to fit in the transport box. The small dish was treated in the same way, but usually gets left on the vehicle for transportation. The support weapon was a spare originally from an Old Crow model, the Trojan I think. I drilled a 1mm hole in both the support weapon and the hull to fit it in position. Porc-epic Mixed Calliope Took a bit of thinking with this one. I had two hulls left over from German (ONESS) Thor MBT, so these were used as the base of the vehicle. As these had a mixed armament of guns and missiles I had a rummage through the spares box and found two Old Crow Multi- missile turrets and 4 Gatling guns, that would do. So I cut back one of the missile boxes: the top one (as it would be on the turret), making sure I did the correct one on each pair. I then cleaned this up, drilled out a large enough hole to take the Gatling guns, and dully stuck these in. I now had a problem with the hole in the hull, it was too big, so I cut some brass tube to length and stuck this into the original hole, and filled the gap with green stuff. I then fitted the turret with a piece of brass rod that fitted tightly into the tube: sorted! I also fitted a GZG radar dish to the middle of each turret, by drilling out and just sticking it in. Cochon 21cm Artillery This is really an ongoing project having seen a picture on the Hammers Website, as I'm still waiting for some Provider Transports from Old Crow which I ordered a couple of months ago. Anyway I'd ordered some RAMA Turrets from GZG which had arrived, but I didn't want to use them straight from the box. I took the gun assembly as this is what I wanted to change and cut of the long barrel leaving a very short piece at the base. I then stuck this to the “magazine” bit, but upside down, I then drilled and pinned a piece from the Roof Fittings pack. To this I added a length of brass tubing to give me a hollow barrel length. If and when the Providers arrive they will be fitted to the cargo area, hopefully, then the vehicles will be painted. The turrets are all ready. The aerials were all made using the plastic sleeving from some BT wire and 18lb Fishing Line (handy having another hobby like that…).  Next page. Division Legere Epee command APC.
