Nice! Watch out for the orientation of the steerable (front-most) road wheels. The hubs didn't rotate with the wheels - the flat bit should be horizontal.

Thank you Jean-Christophe! You saved me just in time, I had already glued the wheels together but with a bit of force could tear them apart again. Luckily they weren't glued to the model yet.

As you suggested the two bolt on the central hub should be pointed upwards!

Its a fun to build model, not to big, not to small. Overall fit and detail is good. There is room for some tweaking of details, but it's not mandatory

Glad to help! What you wrote is a better way of saying it.

I just noticed the box art is wrong in this respect.

Thanks for the tip, I think I'll build one too someday. One of my planned projects is a BT-7 from Tamiya, converted to the BT-7M (the Diesel variant) with the conversion kit from MR Modellbau.

Haha the boxart was the first thing I too checked, after reading your comment. Luckily the internet had the answers.

I can recommend to build the hobby Boss kit, it's fun. I'm now working on the tracks, less fun more repetition. But I'll get there, one link at the time.

I have the Tamiya BT too, but haven't build or compared it to this one. My plan was to convert it to a BT-7a with the help of a russian aftermarket kit. Mr. Modellbau has some great aftermarket sets, always tempting when I see them on a fair. Looking forward to see your take on the BT tank Jean!

Thank you for the interest! I've had a son in the past year, so my time for the hobby is at an all time low. But I'll try to pick up the pase in-between the diaper Changes.

Congratulations! Trust me, I know how it is, I've had three in the last 7 years 😅
