A well painted kit, which could have been even better with some sagging of th tracks..

Unfortunately that was included in the kit. I did not mention but this is completely a 'out of the box' build. I found the metal tracks way too expensive. 🙂

Great camo. Is this the AFV kit Pz.Kpfw. VI Tiger I Ausf. E ..tte (AFV Club AF35S25, 1:35) ?
Regarding the tracks, you could glue them to the roadwheels; I never had problems with Dragon DS tracks or Tamiya new vinyl tracks. Just put something soft between the tracks and hull until the glue is dry. I use the foam cushions from the old Games Workshop blisters or Q-tips.

Yes thats the one. The DS tracks are really easy to work with thats why I like it. Thanks for the tips.

Or, in the early stages if the build, drill a little hole in the hull side and glue a little metal rod (paperclip?)inside the hull. The part outside the hull is to be bent and push downwards the tracks.
I hope my explanations are clear: it's the kind of trick easier done than said...
