      Thank you Steve, I'm not out of the woods yet. I have no real remedy for the tracks .... Will see what comes to mind.

                    Thanks JR......they were a PITA!! The upside is that I can't put 'em on the Rooskie vehicle cos it will be covered with hitch hikers. :tongue-out2: :tongue-out3: :tongue-out: :thumb2:

                      Rick,

                      Sorry missed out on all the recent updates. That really is to top-notch scratchery on display. Very well done indeed!!!

                      They're going to look very good indeed once finished.

                      ATB.

Now quit showin' off and git 'er done Buddy..............

                          Hi Rick
                          WOW!! Excellent work. Amazing at any scale. As has been said those drums show incredible skills.

                              Thank you One and All, I knew, going into this build, there would be lots of "scrarchery" required. And since I only had two of these little beasts in the stash, I figured I would get them both out of the way in one swoop. Next up is....all the hatches have to be redone as the covers are a VERY poor fit and the hinge fittings look like the Rocky Mountains.......not sure what to do for hinge replacement though. Still on my second Cuppa so plenty of time for consideration. :thinking: Rick H.
