I'm trying out an assembly line approach on this build where I've removed all the pieces from the sprues up front

I haven’t made much progress in the last few weeks because the old Covid finally caught up with me after avoiding it for 2+ years. I only had symptoms for 3 or 4 days but it left me low on energy for a while longer.

Tonight I was finally able to get back to the bench and get things moving again.

These tracks proved to be pretty tricky. All the reviews I've seen of TRex on YouTube have been very positive, but the Pz I track design makes the middle of each track link a very weak part. Fortunately there are plenty of spares included and I was able to get two complete runs together!

A quick spray with a black rattle-can primer, and we're ready for painting!

Welcome Ben! I've been laid low with a flu for the past few days so not much progress this weekend, but hoping to crack on this week

Album info

I'm using the Ausf B kit from the Takom dual boxing, and decals from Star Decals. I'll try out T-Rex resin tracks for the first time. I've got a 3D printed tools set from Ammo by Mig, but I'm not sure if I'll use those.
