Hey DM,
That's great buddy - thanks. I am always hoping to improve every new build over my last one - obviously 
and this is the stuff that needs to be pointed out to me.
Thanks for the links btw. 'Making' visual weld beads is something I've been looking into and I hope to add a lot of this 'minor' stuff into all future builds as it's what modellers like yourself are looking out for.
Re the MG shield: I know I mentioned the fact that it isn't correct as it's standing up on it's own and I'm now told it shouldn't do that. Unfortunately the one piece hatch moulding was already glued into place and I didn't fancy doing a butchers job on it!
If you look at my 'it's complete' post on page 3(?) I mentioned the EP hole on the inside of the MG shield in the text above that photo and named it as something to be remedied asap. This weekend I'll be sorting that and stretching some sprue for the twin antennae.
Thanks again DM,
Kind regards,
Ben
