Some of the detail looks stunning!

It is much better than any of the other kits I have come across so far.

The tracks look a little daunting!
I may take the easy option as I am not sure that I want working tracks.
It will be bad enough assembling all those wheels and getting them into position.
That will be 92 for each side.

Hi Zak,

No worries then. One for each of your years!

How old do you think I am?
On second thoughts don't answer that.

You even get a German photographer.
Some bits of etched brass on the camera as well.

Well aligning the wheels and fitting the sides took a bit of fiddling but I eventually got there.

Looking very impressive, pleased to see the clamps are some use, will all this be covered up when the model is complete?

Unfortunately it will.
I have decided to take the easy option and have non-working tracks.

Hi Zak,

Chickened out did you, or did common sense prevail??

Bigkev
I hope my next is always better

zak

Common sense obviously.

Machine gun sponsons.
4 of these to construct, not as small as Haddocks bits but still quite a challenge for me.
(Can I say his bits are small? - too late now)

Hi Zak,

I understand his 'small bits' are perfectly formed, well that's what Mrs Haddock says..............
