    Thank you Chuffy. Really appreciate your kind words. Did my best. As for the glue - it is polish glue Brand Clear Glue (BCG). Works like white glue, but much comfortable for gluing edge to edge. I ordered it from polish site here

    I'm sorry for late update. Suddenly, there is some other major project in my life, that i need to route my free time to, so progress on Panzer I slowed down. But i managed to glued rest of rivets in fight compartment, though this was pain in the @ss. 0.6 rivets easily delaminate and hard to work...

    Spent some time to finish glue all bolts in engine compartment and then came the time to put engine in! Prepared some more details: two fuel filters, one unknown small tank and some strengthening bars. To place engine and other parts easily, you need to do steps in right order. First of...

    Thanks Revell-Fan Continue with engine cylinders Added spark plugs from scratch Also tried to work with 0.6 rivets.... to small. I'm still choosing the order between paint, cut and glue. Whole tank has more than 500 rivets. I hope i can keep up with that :rolleyes: Cylinders...

    Thanks (again) Boris. :biggrin: Starting to fill engine compartment. Fuel tanks, air filter tubes' rings and engine mounts I didn't glue engine mounts in place. The reason is that there isn't any drawing that's show how to glue them. So i will wait for assembled engine to figure it out...

    Tension bars. Two in main hull and one in engine compartment I bent long small diameter tubes with a help of wet paint brush. Just go over the detail with it and bent on suitable road. This way it has less cracks. Just to mention - designer gives the option to make this bars from wire...

    Naturally next came interior skin. Aligned perfectly by lines, so no mistake in frame assembling. Only issue was with parts K6 - it was wrong shape and didn't attached properly at front. I adjusted it and aligned inner skin part 6 accordingly and then glued to frame

    Started unusually by the numbers and instruction and not with tracks. They are simple, just three parts for each link, so i don't think i will stuck on them in later stage. So first of all hull power frame. If you want that interior and exterior skin will align perfectly, you need to assemble...
