Thanks Gino, i just found them in the bits box. Silly thing to overlook but it should be a simple fix.
Now to test if i can match up the paint and weathering.

Many thanks to the astute viewers that caught the error with the blade extensions. I was able to correct the issue fairly easily since the parts were still sitting on the sprue in the spares bin. I dont know how I overlooked it but its better now.
I added a lot more pigment to the blade so I may add a little more to the 88 when I place it on a diorama.
I will be weathering the engine pack when I weather the M1A1
another details shot of the pack and blade.

Great detailing and weathering. The use of colors and the lifting of the engine sure is eye-catching.

Incredible build David. All the added details are just stunning. Awesome paint job and the weathering is excellent. That powerpack is beautiful and it turns the vehicle into a scene.

Very nicely done! And I see you did away with the hatch on the rear of the casemate as well.
Your build also answered a question for me - I always wondered why they removed that hatch and plated over the opening, instead of just leaving it there as an extra means of egress. It seemed to me a waste of time and resources. But I built mine with the “ACAV” turret. Your use of that particular gun turret demonstrates why the hatch had to go. It would have been in the way.
