?That's looking great, I wonder what it's gonna look like painted up!  I assume you will be casting up a few before you do that?

Where I am arrived...
Need to work on the canvas and need to add rivets evrywhere. (something like a quarter of a mm)  8)

Hatches are apart, as it was common to see them open to provide cover for passengers; don't know how it will end with the cast contraint, maybe various versions.

Very nice!  The canvas top will cast better if the sides have canvas on as well, is this the plan?

Also, how big is the gap inside the hatches?  A small gap would be OK, and we could put a driver in?

Canvas will be closed.

Hatches are something like 2/3 mm deep.

Excellent just the right size for some shoulders and a head!

Looking good!  I'll have to let one of our customers know, he's been wanting a few of these!
