No worries...I’ve made a couple of changes (1x3 curved bricks in dark red, 1x1 slopes in red, 1x2 tiles on feet in red) due to part limitations in my small spares collection, and am about to remove the yellow from the turrret as it doesn’t fit the TL5 Royal Brictorian Army colour scheme...oh yes, and the gun is now in black as well.

On the subject of missing parts in the instructions, 3 technic pins in the barrel, 2 to hold the gun to the turret, and 4 to hold the “tear” sections on the rear of the turret would also prove helpful :)

And maybe placing a “whip” antenna in a clip at the rear of the turret, or a small “lever” antenna on the turret roof for comms ?

I think I caught two of the missing parts in my updated instructions but not the tear... I have a bad habit of pretending that 1x2 technic bricks already have the half-pins ;) I believe that the gun is unbuildable as is since the two minfig part greebles don’t come in grey. Dark grey or black would be fine anyway so I’m not too worried.

Curse you though, now I want one myself. Might have to see what I’ve got and what I need. Comms could be good. Thought I added some to the roof but might have forgotten to do so.
