    I know, and it’s something I use at times when I need to brush-paint white or yellow. But I still don’t see why I would go to the trouble of painting large areas sand and then white if I can just spray white primer on them to get good coverage in one go.

        Gary,

            Whoever thought of plastic tracks,should be locked in a room and forced to do them for 48hrs straight.

                    You need to glue two teeth to each link? Wow! Can I have those instead of four-part or six-part workable Sherman tracks, please?

                    But yeah, track links are not exactly the greatest part about modern tank kits. It used to be I disliked the suspension most, with all those wheels, but that has long been overtaken by the tracks. Best advice I can offer: don’t do them all in one go, but build bits of track in between other parts of the kit.

                      Couldn’t agree more Jakko, working through it slowly.

                        Track finished. I wouldn’t want to rush into those again. Slowly coming together and then a paint job.
