Very nice. I want to do this very tank (or any Afrika tiger) for some time. But not to put myself in the rivet counter's group but on 131 the front left (port) outer bogie is removed/missing. You can see it in the beginning of your video and in fact if you look at Dragon's 1/35 kit of 131 it too shows that bogie removed. Question? did they bolt one on for HRH to view or was one added much later in it's life as a museum/show piece? I have visited a few modeler's forum where the subject has come up and usually with no conclusive answer. It is a similar experience I am having depicting the famous 'Blue' Spitfires of Malta.

Thank you very much everyone for your comments. Robbie, you're right, at the time of the capture the tank did not have an outer bogie, I'm not sure if it was put when it was presented to the king, I did not find pictures of that moment on the side where we could see it, I based on another photo where it appears already with the wheel and insignias of the First British Army, also appears in the video
