Hello all, long time lurker but first time posting an 'in progress'. This is my first 'ACE' kit, and in fact I have done no research about this subject at all. The kit was a gift from my good friend Procopius, and I thought: "What the hay?" Before I read the box, I had no idea this thing existed. Based on the instructions, I'm going with a post war version, and model it with...something. Maybe a T-34 or my T-55. Anyways, the kit has all kinds of fiddly photo-etch which I've never had great luck with. Currently I cut out the radiator core in anticipation of a PE replacement and looking forward in the (two-steps of the) directions. Apparently you're also supposed to cut of the front bumper, bend a piece of PE and glue it on the frame rails... I'll wait to see if I can get the PE bumper anywhere near correct before I start cutting. Anyways, PICTURES! The awe inspiring box top... For the life of me I couldn't figure out how I was going to cut the radator core out. It was fairly thick, and I didn't have nearly enough blades to try to cut it out. Yay pin vise! And the cleared out core ready for some sweet, sweet brass goodness...
