Very nice work so far ER!
Speaking of Eduard PE, have your or anybody else heard if the Eduard set for the Kinetic kit would fit the Panda?

There are a fair few of dimensional 'differences' between the two kits so 100% compatibility is a definite no no. Dicky is probably not far shy with his 75%

Some parts are interchangeable but you need a lot of sanding to fit on the panda

Good to see this one's not being neglected ER, squeezing it in between other projects will keep it moving slowly but steady!

Andy I got the Mojo back after lucky model delivered the resin wheels after waiting 3 months lol Gary I've been riding off a bit lately, Thanks brother Nemo, regarding with the lugs it much easier for me to make larger holes, the thickness is exactly 1.5mm it will be filled and sand after. Paul / Leon / Bill Thanks a lot guys Updated assembly of the chassis: Cheers!!

Seems as tho you're having just as much fun with this as I am with the Dragon Abrams. For all of that, it's lookin pretty good.
Perhaps you and I should create an new MSC contest, we can call it the Dog Of The Month
Regards, Mark

I'll blame Nemo for that contest lol maybe he could send us a dog of a kit and we build for a year lol (Assuming that its buildable ) I'll make a full scan of the PE instructions for the complicated ones only after I filled out the whole bond paper , much better if you have the PE bending tool which makes our life easier, I think I have to place an order later ruler and blade makes mine crude bending. one more option change the 50 cal gun. Here some works on the MATV : Cheers!!

Keep plugging away at it ER, it's coming together! You're right about getting a bending tool, one of the best things to have in your arsenal when it comes to dealing with PE. While I will admit that I still do a lot of bending with pliers, tweezers, and finger pressure, the bending tool is perfect for complex things and larger items to get nice, consistent bends every time.

Thanks Andy Bill, Yes I still do with the basic ruler and blade thing. some of the crude bends already covered with putty. Nemo, Yes I do my friend, since the instructions have no particular order lol. Cheers!!!
