    Time to attach the tracks to the track assembly. When attaching the tracks you need to align one edge of the track to the BACK of the assemble, this will give you the proper amount of over hang on the front side. But before attaching the treads I had to do a little prep work. Taking a gray...

    I had to assemble the head piece in segments. First I glued the top to the main body and let this dry. Once it was secure I was able to fit it to the rest of the body

    The Vulcan shuttle is just about finished finished. I just need to attach the shuttle to the sled (engine) section and add some detail. Now its time to address the warpage. What I've done is secured the model to a board and locked it into the position that it SHOULD be in. I then placed the...
