The tracks take some care and patience but seem to work ok, Thanks for looking.

Hi Steve, this is the first build I have seen of this AFV. It looks upto the normal Meng standard - the detail is great and the innovation they use with jigs etc to help build up tracks and bend PE is first class. I thought at first that the tracks on the T90 would be a nightmare but they turned out a pleasure to build and very authentic looking. Great build so far mate, looking forward to the rest. :goodjob:

Thanks for the interest guys, a little update here may not seem like a major step forward but it has taken me a week to reach this stage and I am glad it is done,

Pushing ahead now, starting to look like a tank now, great detailing, even the rifling in the barrel, some filling and rubbing to do but nothing much,

That looks great under it's layer(s) of paint. I like the idea of the pre-shading in some areas - something I've not tried on my little tank builds but I might do for the 1/48 ones I'm going to try for the Achtung Panzer GB. Thank you for the idea.

Kind regards,

Stix
