Following with interest!!

Bart Goesaert
thx. hope not to disappoint. already looking out for some camouflage on this one, and maybe a small change to make it an AMK instead of a standard one...

Alec K
What a beast! Nice progress 👍

Bart Goesaert
Progress was a bit slower then expected... Wheels fitted under the hull, only 1 needs a bit of correction for not touching the ground (to me it's a succes...)
Also thinned down one support for the launchers... some tedious work, but luckily the resin isn't that brittle. Further I ran into a serious problem with the windshield part. It is approx. 1.5mm smaller then the hull, and I'm very puzzled how to deal with that

i have a tipp for the windshield: you can make self; you need only a plastic from a blister. so you can scratch the pice 😉

Bart Goesaert
thx Thomas, tried it first with the saw, whenall else fails, I can still try to scratch it completely...

Thomas K.
👍

Thomas K.
good idea 😉

Łukasz Gliński
Watching, wish there was a styrene one on the market... 🤔

Bart Goesaert
There is, not in 1/72

Łukasz Gliński
Ah, I didn't mention 1/72 of course 🙂
