Next task: making rubber tracks behave. 
 

Album image #3
Still trying to make the rubber tracks behave. I've just flooded the area with super glue gel. Last chance saloon to make these stick. (The tracks are too long for the method proposed by the instructions - had to take things into my own hands).

Time for camo. This might be a bad idea. (It was a bad idea.)

The masking fluid is looking very thin and difficult to remove. (It was.)

Well, it's very scratched and I need to redo the gun.

It might be ok 😄

Got up early to get the spray booth up and running before work. Elefant now built and primed. For a cheap 1:76 kit, I think it is starting to look good. The rubber tracks were horrible to put on, but they have a good shape. Dark yellow base coat next, for three-colour camo.
