timraven1992 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Well, everybody love Chally 2's! The most attractive and deadly tank in the world, and it's British! My Airfix Chally 2 came in the post this morning, with no broken bits! (unlike my Harrier) I've noticed that 1/35 is actually fairly big, and gives scope for lots of detail, which the kit already seems to have Anyway: the box and bits: Does anyone have any tips for working with these (vinyl?) tracks? Never worked with these tracks, or 1.35 scale, but I could like it! Hope you enjoy this Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derwentsider Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Good choice Tim. I found the tracks ok,just follow the instructions. One thing to watch out for though, the turret in my example was not a great fit so be patient and have some strong glue such as Ambroids `Pro Weld` and a tube of filler handy. Its not the Tamiya kit but hey,its not £35 either. You`ll enjoy it mate. Tim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timraven1992 Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 Thanks for the advice and replies people Hate to let everyone down but it'll be a while before any progress is made on this, I have an Airfix 1/48 Spit and Hurri Mk 1 in the post and want to finish them for the BoB GB. I promise it'll be finished by the end (and I'll give myself extra brownie points if I finish the Academy 1/35 Warrior MCV coming in the post! ) You never know, I may start it sooner than you think And cheers Daz, I'll drop you a PM if I can't find a pic i need Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
