Have decided that this will be my xmas build. We lucky construction managers get 2 weeks off.

Got a feeling it will take far longer but can't wait to start it.

I started this kit last winter. It was my first build coming back into the hobby after a very long time. As with all my models, they get put away once the nice weather settles in. I have back surgery first week of January and think I will pull out the kit. I have to say, switching back and fourth between two sets of instructions is daunting. I've made a number of mistakes, some I could repair, others not. I recently bought the crew members also for this kit, as well as the individual track links and feel this kit is going to get me through many winters. Enjoy!

I have been mainly using the interior instructions and just referring back to the main build instructions on and off. So far, it's been working. Famous Last word's I think.....
You will have to post some pics of your build so I can see if I'm heading in the right direction. Pantherman

Now fitted the engine, cooling system and some seats. Pity that you don't see much of the engine bay when the rear hull plate is fitted. Pantherman

So I've tidied up the engine bay,fitted the rear hull, added the transmission and a few ammo boxes. Still some touching in needs doing and the last few part's before I move on to the ammo racks and upper hull. Pantherman

Thanks, it's hard to believe that so far it's almost 250 parts and I really haven't started on the main build, just the interior. Great fun though. Pantherman
