Thanks Jim, they look good and so does the last photo, I ve never seen that before either ?
Shall bare those in mind, but will wait until Allen comes back to me .
Oh no Steve, are you trying to send me over the edge :disappointed::smiling3: mind you the winter wash would hide all my mistakes, don't think I would use the Panzer Putty either, thought it gave a too harder line. That was no doubt caused by the spray angle.
Thanks buddy, very kind of you.:thumb2:
John aka Dude 2 and other's !

Just mentioning the offer from Allen I must also mention Mike C who has very kindly offered to cast me some spares. Ive pm'd back . Cheers Mike . :thumb2:
Meanwhile at the bench some steady progress has been made, only one flyer, even had my catch all on when I was removing a very small part to go on the springs, it has just disappeared, i've search the bench, the floor, shirt , socks, slippers, even swept up . Nothing , just disappeared, whats the betting that it turns up after this has been built !

As the wheels and tyres are consultation with the experts I decided to have a go with adding to the seats, I think Paul mentioned this this using a microporous tape . Had great fun applying the tape and trimming
:smiling3:

Not too bothered about the odd tear, looks a bit more worn. I also had a go at reducing the thickness of that gear change, it looked about 3 times the size, mind you the plastic would have been so thin.

Got as far as this with the axles.
Below on the bottom right you can see the part that is missing from the other leaf.

As most of this is hidden I shall have to make cut a small section of plastic strip if needed for support.
That's it for now only other thing to report is this .

Turned up on the base of the Stalingrad diorama, Management said its been there for several days !
Mmmm I see .
