Hi guys, got some more done so far this week


I spent a lot of time fettling around with the seams between the new and kit parts to make them as smooth a jojn as possible and then added a few details on the top hull such as the exhaust pipes.  The only contemporary photos I could find of the SMK were taken from the ground so don't show the top of the tank in detail, there are quite a few plans around but they differ in details I had to use a bit of artistic licence but I think it looks 'right', to my eyes anyway!

I also started adding the roadwheels

Then I started on getting the tracks to fit correctly, which actually wasn't to difficult, only one cut on each side

What was more tricky was getting the fenders to fit as I had to cut them up and add sections in to match the reference photos


There's still a bit of fettling to do but I'm happy with the way it's going and am relieved that the tracks worked out


Thanks for looking
