Casting is excellent. Fit is spot on.

Parts are a mix of resin and 4 types of metal.   |

Looks great! That's a lot of etch for a 72nd scale kit.  |

There's twelve resin parts to each suspension unit alone. Each final drive has two paired metal sprocket rings. I'm enjoying the build, but I've made a slight error with the side skirt arms and I'm having to unbond two pairs. (must remember to look at the instruction properly in future)   |

Looks like a clean and nicely detailed kit! Just pulled up a chair to follow along.

Count me in for a seat - pizza to start with, followed by popcorn for dessert!  I must admit being newly returned to the hobby as I am, I'm not familiar with this manufacturer but as I'm sticking to 1/72 for the time being I'm interested in anything good in this scale. Added it to the bookmark list! |

Nicely different subject material in my favourite scale, watching this closely.

Running gear fitted. Once the CA has set overnight I just need to level of the side skirt arms. The arms are two pieces of PE and are quite fiddly to put together.  |

So, after some time with family, work and other projects getting in the way, I have added more PE to the hull and finished the turret.   |

Thank you for the comments. It's looking better in preshading and base coat. Hopefully I'll get some more photo's up soon.

I might have over done the front plate but, it may be beneficial if all comes out as I want |
