Here is a tiny update on the rear glacis. I decided to use some fruils for the extra links, the ones in the kit are....basic, let`s say. First plug the hole with streched sprue: fast and efficient. rearglacis01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr rearglacis02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr Then I`ve sticked a fruil link in the correct position...My CA is getting old I think... and Ive prepared some of the pices needed to make the brackets. Found some PE nuts! weeee rearglacis03 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr drilled some 0.5mil holes and got some styren rod in them holes! As you can see, I`ve drilled at the wrong place on the lower right Had to plug it...No biggie there. rearglacis04 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr Now I got to cut these to lenght and try to stick the metal strip and nuts. We`ll see how this turn out in the next episode people! Phil out!

Stick with it Phil, road wheels are the price we pay as armor builders, no way around it!

Phil, as Bill said, it's the price we pay. I prefer wheels to masking a canopy, btw
