      I'll join the party Paul, RFM kits are not a maker I've had any experience of.

                You can have my seat Pal ! I'm going over to sit next to Lee so he can show me the finer points of eating with my hands. Utensils are over-rated anyway !

Assembly wasn’t quite as tight (so to speak) as the look of the sprues made me think, but it was certainly easy enough. I don’t think you’ve got anything to fear with this one :smiling3:
                        Jakko, so far she is going together very cleanly.

I'll have a Tetley's and park in the corner......too many bits and bobs for me but I have a feeling you'll be substituting a lot of these for your own scratchy bits here and there Mr. Scottie.......watching with interest.:thumb2::thumb2:Rick H.
                        Rick, welcome aboard good choice I will stick a few in the fridge. Given the detail on this kit and the PE I don't think there will be a lot for me to do.

                        Graeme, they are a new one on me I have heard of them but never built one so far I am impressed.

                        All the best food is designed to be eaten with fingers.

                              The running gear is done. and went together very nicely. No flash and only some small seams to remove.

                                A little bit more done on the hull. The rear plate has been built including kit parts, etch and scratched chains. The exhausts have been opened up.

                                The front glacis has also been fitted. Most of the small parts I have left off these will be added when the main components have been put together.
                                As you can see the fit is very good.
