modelling the interior of the cab, all textures are from rl images of Israeli half-tracks

so the doors were only one face thick and would then appear transparent in game...

so I had to "solidify" them (I wrongly thought like in autocad) if you extrude you automatically get six faces from a plane.. not so in blender.

I'm finishing off the M3/5 with cab details and will use it to replace the normal lite one, the 20mm, the 57 mm and both 81mm and 120 mm mortar ones.

the underside mg was when calling the mg as 3d model under 'weapon'...
