Kenny, thanks for the explanation of how you achieved this with the foil.  It gave some excellent results and will be trying your method out myself.  Was wondering how you did this Beer

I have used Bill's build for reference and made mine from foil, using a cocktail stick to do the embossing. Very easy to do

Cheers....Kenny

Kurt,

I didn't scratch-build the ammo bins on my build, I used the parts available in an Eduard PE upgrade set.

Having said that, if I were to go about scratchbuilding them I would use some thin aluminum or brass sheet and scribe in the necessary "X" reinforcements from the back side using something hard to emboss the pattern on the outer surface. HTH!

Hello all, or I guess this question is directed towards Wild Bill. I have seen posts on here that tell of a build you did on the Tamiya Mobelwagon & how you scratch built the storage bin doors for it. If I could pick your brain, Id like any info you could pass along to me please. Thanks for any help. Kurt
