Assembled the first tracks, had to add some plastic tracks that will not be visible afterwards. Modelltrans tracks and roadwheels are nice, but there is a shortage in links unfortunately...

Been busy with these for a while, progress is slow. Have a question about the mounting of the mineroller system. Is the way the frame is mounted to the hull correct as shown here? Or should it be flush?

I've assembled the second track set, which was a direct copy of the Revell Merkava III tracks. It needed some cutting and removing some cast tracks to the sprockets to make them fit. Still some minor details to add, but track sets are ready to paint...

Only things to do are the mg's, some ammo crates, and the skirts in the Magach 7a

ready for primer... thought to be a little further yet with this one... MG's are soldered... three layers that need to be perfectly aligned... not perfect, but I'm satisfied...

Did not know there was black Mr.Surfacer! Good to know 👍

Bart Goesaert
it's works more nice then the regular Mr surfacer IMHO, it is for sure not such a pain to get it through your airbrush...

Hmm. Great. Does it come in 500/1000/1200 grades, like the grey stuff?
