armor - norm - 07.09.2009

i have a 1/72 scale panzer with skirt armor, and in the external armor i would like to have some puncture points from hits taken. any advice? i have a idea witch i will try with some spare styrene, wich is
1. score a asterisk shape in the surface of the plastic,
2. heat a nail
3. press the nail through the plastic at the middle of the asterisk

all opinions and ideas welcom. this is my second tank model. i have just finished a T-34/85, of the same scale, i will post pics tomorrow after noon.

Hmm... How thin is the armor? Where did it get hits? From another tank?

preferably from another tank, but how thick on the model or the real thing?

Gentlemen I present the T-84/85

I mean that if the real tank has thin armor even some machinegun shots might do a hole.
