The tracks do look good Philipp but I'm not sure how doing a dance would be helpful.

Re: Panzer III J, North Africa 1942
Love moveable tracks, truly hate resin (I mean the solid stuff is okay.. but something moveable AND thin enough to easiely break?)... so it's theoretically a toss up, in reality though... errm... no .
So I suppose this is why I never tried resin tracks and don't intent to in the near future - though I wish you the best of luck with them!
Best regards

Yeah, I guess metal pins might be a better option....or, you know, just make the bloody stuff from regular plastic and sell 10 billion sets because there are no workable plastic early 40cm tracks available anywhere
Anyhow, here's a little progress:
Right now the fenders and superstructure components are only held together by friction, gravity and prayers to the machine spirit because I'm feeling insufficiently rested tonight to glue anything of major importance together.

Indeed it is Vincent
Here's a little more:
All major components have been fitted with no problem....but....
It's not quite as obvious here, but the sandbags have gaps everywhere despite being made for and with this very kit.
I could fix this with some putty, but....
Nah, I don't think I can fix this...
So, back to Milliput, as in the days of yore...
