VK72.01 (K) at the bench

Album image #1
Hatches, wheels and other details are painted and weathered separately; it's easier.

Album image #3
I tape the wheels to a strip of wood adhered with a simple tape loop. The backside and edges are sprayed first with Tamiya Steel, the wheels flipped over and then painted on the front only. Finished by weathering the wheels on the tape.

The suspension is workable; here I have attached the Friul metal tracks.  
 

Album image #5
Eagle eyed viewers will note I have the wrong tracks; these go to a Geschutzwagen. i've ordered my lowe tracks by Friul, I have an easy system which i will share soon.
