BA-64B Assembly
Filling in all the ejection marks. There are quite a few!
Scratchbuilt the fuel tank.
Diagram of the internals of the fighting compartment. Going to have to scratchbuild these.
Blueprints of the front lower plate of the hull.
Mounting of the hull to the chassis.
My attempts at casting vision blocks for the turret and a clear headlight.
Scratchbuilding the interior. Even though it's easy to see into the open turret, the kit offers very little in terms of contents.
Started painting the muffler. Used a double layer of hairspray chipping for the first time. I'm rather pleased with the result.
Interior just before sealing.
Tried brush chipping for the very first time! I think I may have gone a little overboard.
Wash, pigments, and streaking.
Glued on the spare tire after the streaking underneath was done.

Thanks! I didn't have scale drawings, so I had to guess regarding the size of things. It all came together in the end, so I couldn't have been that far off.

No one is going to measure it, don't bother.
It's a "shame" that In the end only a small part of it will be visible.😎

The BA-64 has an open top turret, so you can see quite a bit inside even when it's all closed up.
