A bit more has been done, painting tools & small parts. Started to do the tracks, Dragon magic tracks are pretty good, they go together nicely. I'm going to put the wheels & tracks on before I add the schurtzen & their brackets to the hull, so a bit of weathering on the hull sides, wheels & tracks is needed.

Time for an update, The magic tracks have been assembled into link & length sections, setting them with the correct sag with the wheels, sprockets & idlers. The tracks were then painted black, with grey metal for the contact surfaces, a brown wash & pigments to weather them. The lower hull & wheels have been weathered too.

Time for another progress report, the wheels are on & the tracks on one side have been put on. I discovered that the box of magic tracks don't have enough spares for all the spare tracks on the hull sides, so I will have to use some from the original kit tracks, they aren't as good and have solid guide horns which I've had to drill out & fettle, pity they are too small to get a decent picture. This is the hull & tracks today, the picture are a bit stark due to me having to use flash on the camera.
