Nice crisp details, easy clean-up and halves fit together well on the SP resin wheels.

I'll only be using one dished wheel from the kit, replacing the other road wheels and idlers with the SP versions. You can't use the kit poly caps with the SP wheels, but it's not like it will be moving around anyway!
![Album image #3 Album image #3](/albums/img/8/7/6/1289876-114733-50-720.jpg)
The kit goes together easily, and I like the details like the "functional" torsion bars.
![Album image #4 Album image #4](/albums/img/8/7/6/1290876-114733-40-720.jpg)
PE anti-skid plates on. Much better than the little bumps on the kit parts.
![Album image #5 Album image #5](/albums/img/3/2/0/1291320-114733-17-720.jpg)
Hull complete, on to the launcher assembly.
![Album image #6 Album image #6](/albums/img/3/3/3/1292333-114733-94-720.jpg)
The tracks go together easily with the jig. They still CAN pop apart with enough pressure (whoops,) but they hold better than the Trumpeter click-togethers that I used before.

![Album image #8 Album image #8](/albums/img/8/9/8/1293898-114733-97-720.jpg)
Just about done with build, then ready for primer.
![Album image #9 Album image #9](/albums/img/8/9/2/1296892-114733-37-720.jpg)
a little airbrush hiccup during pre-shading, but we are back on track.
![Album image #10 Album image #10](/albums/img/9/2/6/1297926-114733-90-720.jpg)
Making progress.

![Album image #14 Album image #14](/albums/img/9/4/4/1302944-114733-58-720.jpg)
Decals are on, slowly getting there.
![Album image #15 Album image #15](/albums/img/5/5/8/1303558-114733-52-720.jpg)
Time for the tracks to go on.
![Album image #16 Album image #16](/albums/img/8/3/2/1303832-114733-44-720.jpg)
Major work is done, a few details to go, then planning the base and weathering.

![Album image #20 Album image #20](/albums/img/8/6/4/1310864-114733-13-720.jpg)
Finally was able to make some more progress!
![Album image #21 Album image #21](/albums/img/9/5/1/1315951-114733-67-720.jpg)
Slapped some scrap wood together for a base.
![Album image #22 Album image #22](/albums/img/9/5/2/1315952-114733-11-720.jpg)
Not the best job, but most of the earth won’t be that visible when finished.
![Album image #23 Album image #23](/albums/img/9/5/3/1315953-114733-84-720.jpg)
Checking the layout, the “wheat” is going to need to be a little shorter I think.
![Album image #24 Album image #24](/albums/img/8/2/3/1317823-114733-12-720.jpg)
Nearing the finish line, just a couple of little things to add.

Time to put this on the shelf. I really need better lighting/ photography, 'cause my pictures don't do it justice.
