Hey,

A long time ago i,ve built the Monitor from Nimix.




Now,in spite of i,ve no room for another one,i want to build the the PGM MK-49 Monitor River Boat from Masterpiece Models.



But,maybe it is a little bit stupid,i,m confused and need your help.
Opening the box i saw a lot of styrene and there are two kinds of round styrene,"thick and thin".



I don't know and can't see it on the photo from the Monitor where i,ve to use the "thick" styrene.

Do i need it for the bar armor on the front of the Monitor.



Is it for the two guns???



Or is it for the bar armor from the gun on the front???



I'll hope somebody can help me with this.

Thanks
Ronaldo

Ronaldo,
I have been looking at this photo

It seems to me that the bar armour around the front bow section and also around the front howitzer is thicker that the bar armour around the deck housing and the rear two guns.
I hope this helps.
David
