                  Hi Dean, welcome aboard. Great start on an iconic tank and work horse for the Germans. Just like the Mercedes it needs a service everyweek or the warrantee will expire so will be seeing you around the parish.:smiling2: Mad house joke, I'll get my coat if I've pushed the wrong button..... you're not blonde are you?

                  Cheers,
                  Richard

                      Dean,
                      welcome to the forum, plenty of advice and comment is here for the asking! - the Tamiya Pz.kpfw IV is a good introduction to tank models - the parts all fit - they may not be the most detailed models on the market, but they look the part! How are you going to paint it?
                      Dave

                          HI, I think I'm going to really like this hobby, I was awake all night, but managed to get this far. Any tips on what paint I should use and how, to use these rubber tracks that come with the kit. The tracks seem too small.

                              Plastic glue doesn't work on these tracks. Would super glue work? Click image for larger version
