I was going to save this build for later but here it is.

I have a little more done.
The Sprockets gave me a time, somehow I got the inner part of the Sprocket teeth reversed, luckily I found out before the glue set and I was able to correct this.
Nice! I want to do one of these, will be following along!
Some more completed, The rear doors and front Wheels.
The Rear Doors are about 1/2mm too wide and need trimming if you want them closed.
Very interesting to watch you work on this Kit Donald. I’m waiting to see how the Das Werk one comes out, so will probably go for that rather than Trumpeters. Trouble is so many other kitsets arriving in 1/16th to tempt like the M113.
Hope you are well
Keith
I have that one ordered from Andy, one thing though .
If the front Wheels are the same as the ones in their first 251 kit, they will need replacing.
The tires are good it’s just the Wheel rims suck. I already have a replacement set for it.

The Wheels are ready to be installed after painting the Hull.
Clearly, the Das Werke tires and rims are just showing that they need to be inflated to set the bead properly in the rims; anyone who’s watched new tires being put on their car has likely seen it any number of times.
The Wheels are installed, You will have to glue them in place as there are no retainers, and they will fall off.
Working on the Track now, a lot of cleanup
Donald
The Track is painted, weathered lightly and installed.
I’ll be working on the Gun next the Camo. will wait until I can do it all at one time.

Donald
The Gun is assembled it wasn’t too bad, just follow the instructions.
