Now turret is starting it means second half of the war!!! A6 - EX turret’s up side completly different from A5 and German A6’s.

I cut with heat uppur side.

And used Evergreen plastic plate again for make upside...

Measuring and cutting processes completed. It’s time to place

Perfectly settled!!!

Hullside finished after engine component completed...

I turned hull side for making headlights. I spent lots of times on lights...

Added wire & PE parts, made side baskets and rear side of turret and finally finished!!!

Now it’s painting time...

Leopard 2A6 HEL camouflage has speciel pattern. It looks like US ARMY’s MERDC camouflage...

I’m using UHU-TAC for making pattern

And here is Burak : 

Hi, When I take new molded Revell’s Leopard 2 A6, I image two models in my head. One of them
Leopard-2 A6 HEL (or EX)

.

Burak Özdil...

Here is new Leopard 2A6 parts...

I didn’t take too much information about tank so It was very hard to change model

Body side completed quickly. My style is painting before assembly.( I use this my all models)

Bottom side finished! I used Testors “olive drap” (FS 34087)

Revell’s new mold is very fine. All components matched perfectly.

Finally I started “nose side” I spend most of times in “prime portal” for take all infos about A6 EX. I

planned to work with Evergreen plastic plates.

I have to use referance point for start so I started from skirt side.

Finally finished front side. All angles were checked... Front side need little makeup for finish

With other Leo project...

will continue with the turret...
