Going to be another interesting project Aaron. Regarding Normandy use, I found online that there were thirty-eight deployed to LVIII Panzer Reserve Corps during the Normandy landings.

I just hope it looks OK when the feet are on. In my mind it will work.

It's not in my nature to make such surgery on kits but the tracks didn't fit and S.W.M.B.O controls the purse strings so no after market tracks and sprocket for me.

Thanks for dropping by peeps. Wish me luck

[aaron]

Success.

Had enough tracks today, tomorrow I'll rinse and repeat.

thats a winner Aaron,great idea,and looks good,

[aaron]

Thanks guys, I'm going to start on the crinoline and upper hull because the tracks took like 4 hours with clipping and cleaning then assembly and I don't want to get tired of this model. There are some really nice p.e parts that I want to get stuck into.

[Guest]

Looking good so far bud.

[aaron]

Cheers Chris mate.

I understand about Indy links. I had a nightmare doing dragons two piece kettenkrad tracks, luckily the kettenkrad I have now has dragons ds tracks.

Part 6 and 7 of the 7 part jack. Not even the worst of the large gates to deal with. Funny enough I'm still having a blast with this build.
