So next up i was looking around the Berg and noticed that i had left of the steps from the Glacis to aid the crew in hopping on and of  The kit supplies these in plastic but they have some stupid attachment points so out came the brass rod. I slowly drilled a couple of holes through the zim and glued ( Carefully ) in place...
 


There is another one lower down as well but the picture was Naff

Also the whole thing was coated with Klear and then pin washed over a few sittings. I have started to add some stowage here and there but will leave you to find it as the pics roll on...
