I would recommend getting those anti reflective stickers, looks very nice if you can make sure the backside is fully smooth and also fully flat. Any bending of the sticker piece will stand out if it isn't smooth and also flat. Although such stickers are made for individual tanks, the ones I have have extra areas that you can use for cutting out custom shapes. Apparently different tanks have different types of coloring to their optics but I am no expert.

Top build (as all your armour builds)! But why don´t you show pictures of the completed and painted models?

Thank you. I prefer to glue and I don't like to paint. I live in an apartment where I have worse conditions for coloring and I can only in the summer. Maybe I'll force myself in the new year and start painting the glued models

Amazing so far! How do you like your build? And was track assembly smooth? I have the same kit and I plan to start it soon!

Almost every link must be cleaned, it must be firmly fixed during gluing, because they bend when drying. Many parts are inaccurately made. But except for the belts, it's a very relaxed and nice kit.

Btw, I learned that you can make your own metal tow cable by stripping the outer layer of a bicycle's shift wire.
The inner core has fewer metal strings as opposed to the outer layer. I tried this and it looks very nice. Heat up to make the "cable" less stiff.

Thanks for the tip, I've already tried to make some ropes from copper wire.

Nice. How's the quality of this Academy kit? I'm interested in getting one of these also.

Kit is good, details nice, sometimes something crooked molded, but it can be repaired or it is not visible. It is a clone of Panzer IV Ausf. H Academy 13516.

I made the British Mk.6 and it's a good kit. Lots of fiddly tiny parts, but it's really detailed. I glued my suspension and it turns out that it needs to compress a bit to fit the vinyl tracks. I had to lengthen my tracks to get them on, but you can't see it.

I made the same kit (Aussie version) at the start of last year. It is a great kit, lots of detail. Along with the tracks being a bit fiddly, I found the turret was a bit tricky to get on....but looks good in the end

I can think of two things that will help greatly. A glue looper tool, that helps adding tiny amounts of super glue at a time, and a glassfiber pen, to scratch away the excessive glue. The pen is abrasive and afaik will eventually eat into plastic, but I haven't yet tried this myself. So the pen is used to gently scrape at the PE parts and the excess superglue will be scraped off.

I will for future projects also consider using masking tape to hold a PE part in place when positioning is very important. I also think I've seen peopleuse blu tack (or similar) to keep PE parts upright before gluing them on (assuming ofc, the adhesive doesn't rip the glued on PE parts off again, haven't tried this myself).

Also, a Tamiya diamond file for PE parts is a good idea to clean off the stubs. Also, a glass plate to place the PE fret on, to avoid bending the PE as you cut the parts off the PE plate.
Sometimes I am not happy with the PE parts, as they sometimes look too thin, so I use the plastic parts instead.

Instead of a glass plate, I use an old cd(-rom). Better for the knife
