Cheers Monica I have already used Vallejo track primer on them before reading this. The tracks for this build are giving me a few headaches I can get one side to lock in but when I try to get the other ones to go it pops out. Needless to say I have not got a lot done today.

it should be fine,just let the glue set a little longer,


ok lets see if I,can help a little hear,what I,do is use double sided tape,on my board,then on top of that,place making tape


sticky side up,


the hard part is getting the first 4 or 5 together,I will hold them and its like a S,patten start at the closest point to you,and click in,


then,push in the middle,part then the end,once you have a few together,push down onto ,the tape,so it holds,and against the ruler


as your straight edge,then you should be able to hold the front ones with a finger and push the others on from the back,holding


on a stile angle,so ends and center,push down and forewords at the same time,and after a few its just gets much easier whit each one,


hope you get what I,mean,and its of help,

Well after a week of messing around with these tracks I have decided not to use them. I have ordered some metal ones instead and will have to wait a week or so for them to arrive.


In the mean time I have decided to start the Famo. Pictures will follow once I get going

You do realise that in starting the Famo, you are personally responsible for me becoming paid and broke next pay day.........

If this kit keeps gong the way it is it will be a dream to build. The first few pieces of PE have been a bit fiddly but that is PE anyway. The chasis is now awaiting the the paint booth treatment.

Here is tonight's update: The Chassis was primed last night and then given a top coat this evening as were the road wheels. Tomorrow night's task will be to paint the pads on the road wheels and assemble the exhausts.

thanks all it is coming along nicely any weathering is going to be done when the building is complete. I now have the metal tracks for the Bergepanther so can carry on with that while I wait for bits to dry.

Tonight has been a feast of PE and I have got to say I really enjoyed it. First up was the job of removing the moulded grill and replacing it with the PE part I then moved on to the light fittings and the front bracket. this was quickly followed by the number plate. These in place I tackled the radiator.
