Hey Again Time for today's update Good thing I got an early start or there would not have been much to show because of all the tiny parts that take so much time to clean up and find on the floor. Could be I need new glasses too. Two areas worked on today: The tow carriage And the gun I completed several sub assemblies for it but didn't lay them out for the picture. Rain changing to snow on the way dang it. Thanks for the comments folks. Tony lee

Nice one! Probably my favourite Russian tractor. Seriously recommend investing in some Friuls for this one though, as the kit tracks aren't that great.

Tracks will be replaced if you say so dierk. All i've heard is it makes up a pretty nice one right out of the box. Thanks guys I were hoping it was the right one to buy. Tony lee

Tony lee You heard right, it's a nice relaxing build - I built one a while back. Here are some comparison shots of the kit and Friul tracks: Never got round to finishing the weathering on mine, as I had to move to look after my dad, but here's a link
