Entry #20 - Building Tristar's Panzer IV Ausf. C

Since Tristar did not include any vision ports I had to make my own.  I cut out several strips of clear plexiglass and glued them inside the hull.  Hopefully this will give the illusion of thick glass.  

 
Before the upper hull could be installed I needed to make 2 plastic inserts.  This was easily done by tracing the outside of the upper hull, cutting it out and then trimming to fit. 

This is what it looks like installed. 


Lastly, part A12 was glued into place.  The instructions want you to attached the piece to the lower hull but it seemed to fit better in the upper hull slot.  Now the two hull pieces are ready to be attached.
