    Have seen 250 pics where no front wheels were on the ground.

      Good to have you along Lee.
      Paul, that does seem that lifting front wheels off the ground on German half tracks was pretty common!

        A bit more progress, the 'Doorknocker', as German troops referred to the 37mm Pak 36, due to it's lack of armour penetration.
        It went together not too badly given Dragon's instructions not always being clear where things went, a few seams needing removing. I used the kit barrel, carefully sanded to remove the seam.

          A bit more (slow) progress, made start on the hull sides & upper, quite a few ejector pin marks to fill, the worst ones on the the hull rear plate. The door had a few too, may be a bit difficult to sand without damaging the door handle mechanisms moulded on the inside.

              Thanks John, the instructions aren't always clear where things go.
