Bart Goesaertnice conversion... was it more easy to do it like that than to cut the sheets separately to glue?

Gustav AnderssonThanks 🙂 I think that this is gonna be a real slow grow, due to the amount of scratchbuilding it will require.
Sorry Bart but my english is a bit bad, could you rephrase the question?

Bart Goesaertforgot a word in my haste it seems. Wasn't it more easy to use thick styrene sheets to build this casing

Gustav AnderssonI haven't given styrene or plasticard a try, other than for the scratchbuilt details, but the Airmodel Vacu kit have some outlines to follow when you cut out the casemate, and is quite cheap, so I went for it rather then designing my own caseing.

Gustav AnderssonAdded some bolts on the rear hatches, aswell as some reinforced plating on the front blade. When the glue is dry I'm gonna try to add som filler to the cavities.

Gustav AnderssonSome progress done. Added a hatch at the casemate, added weldmarks at the reinforced armor and rear hatch, made some cuts in the chassie. The original Italeri tracks are a real pain in the a** and I'm seriusly thinking of getting some third partie ones...
