thanks norm i cant wait to get stuck in but i first want to finish my Flak 38t
 
well made a start not to happy with the flash i must say, sink holes and raises that look like ejector marks but there the other way aeound. i also havent used my pin vice so much since i bought it.

but apart from that it seems to fit together rather well, im still working on lower half.

Spud ..
This is gonna be awesome .. I always wanted to build a gun truck . I started the M35.kit and had it about 95% done until I washed it with a mig wash and it attacked the glue joints . I think I went to heavy on the wash .. Disaster..
 
done a little bit more tonight, getting on the rear axel was fidely and it dint help that one of the bits went missing so i had to scratch one up.

lower end almost done.

there isnt a lot to do in this kit even with 16 pages.. i expect the Resin to take more time than building the truck
 
wow... this looks awesome!
So much resin there - can't wait to see this come together.
 
well the hard part is done, well teh hard part of the afv part. next up is teh cab and rear deck.

this lot is going to get a coat of primer first tough

Spud, this seems to be an unusual and quite interesting subject. :)

Believe me, mate: when I was originally thinking about joining this Group Build (I also considered to join the Air Group), I thought seriously to pick one of this pots like yours one 8) ... ::) but after all, I finally had to decide between either buying supplies & accessories or buying a kit & AM kits... at the end the supplies & accessories party won the match ;D

:p My wife is going to kill me, but I´ve lived enough... :p I´ve spent in supplies and accessories enough to buy 5 or 6 expensive kits... I´m dead meat ;D I´m going to be put in the "bread and water" diet until January ;D

But who cares... ;D isn´t this an ADDICTION ? ;D

I´ll be on stag duty here... ;)
