Looks detailed Ian, nice choice
Dayum. Those tracks are going to be, ahem, 'fun'
Well I’ve made a start on this one, got all the running gear put together and fitted,
Going to start on the wheels now.
Plenty of them to do.

Y'know, I can remember when all the Tamiya tanks had motors and running gear. This is lots of fun!
Along those lines, I recently saw a YouTube model 'reviewer' declare that every Tamiya kit was inaccurate rubbish, after building the T-34 kit. The original, old, T-34, with all the motor spaces. That's from about 1973! Haven't watched the guy since

Great start Ian, it looks a really nice kit. 24 wheels will keep you busy for a while
I missed that this is motorised! Very 
I'm kind of jealous now. Good start Ian, I'm hoping for a full youtube of the tank in action?

Put all the wheels on and the sides fitted.
And now, you have the tracks to look forward to! Well, after all the bodywork completion and painting!
Nice work Ian , loving this
Great progress. Love these WW1 tanks. Looking forward to seeing it trundling across the floor.
Yes the tracks, like you say I’ll save them for another day.
