Thank you so much for the comments @Stef N., @FrancisGL, @Bullbasket, @Hamden and @Muchmirth .... they really are appeciated.
For once, I sat and thought about where the mud would be flung by the tracks based on their direction of rotation ..... and where it would build up in the damaged side fenders.
Still some weathering to complete ..... a bit of dust here and there and mud spatters ..... then the tracks to tackle!

Well, now I've caught up on this build I have to say that your rant is justified John .... for a kit that price, it should be right!
Anyhow, back to the build itself, and it's a joy to see you working your magic and adding all the extra/missing details and finding the solution to the ill fitting parts .....
Looks like I'll have to keep following now!
Keith ☺️
