Not much progress... except installed all the suspension arms and epoxied the mantlet and muzzle brake to the aluminum barrel. Too much shopping and lurking today but I should return to it this weekend. Jeff

Okay, I do have a few more... I really liked the way the 3 piece upper hull just "fell" into place! It makes everything REALLY everything as far as assembly goes. Now after it dries and cures, a tiny bit of attention on the seems and then moving on to the next stage. Jeff

Trumpeter's KV family of kits are among their best IMHO. Looking good Jeff!

Well, basically I have just started so we'll see later on about the fit. But like I said before that the upper hull pieces just fell into place. Strangely enough, the bump stops were a little contrary and were a tight fit but so far so good. I think it's a good one! Jeff

Great progress, Jeff. This one shares the hull with the rest of the sweet trumpeter's KV series.
