hello, thank you for the comment Anthony. a little progress. the rear is almost complete (missing the fire and the hook that I just lost). I also finished the strap, the tripod of the machine gun is mounted just temporarily.

This is making me want to sneak my Zvezda M3 kit out now!

Are the Revell and Zvezda kits similar? Looks so, at least I will have that to look forward to. I even want to try to 'weight' the tires down some for I want to utilize the kits offerings.

I like what you have done here and hope to see paint on it soon?

hello, Thank you Jeff. revell kit, Italeri and Zvezda are identical. for tires, I'll lightly sand it to create a flat below, this will give the impression of "weight". steph

Good evening, thank you RICK. I do the headlight protection, rather complicated. I use the plastic card, but I think I'm going to make aluminum. Meanwhile, here are the windshield done.steph
