Gents thanks a lot for dropping by. Some more work was done. The back of the halftrack is done. Building the 50 cal's and turret. Lots of parts with lots of detail.

Yes, looks like a very high parts count. Very clean building on your part, sir!!

Thank you Gents. Well the building part is mostly over. Several things need to be painted prior to be placed on the kit. Time for primer.

Superb work, John! If Miniart ever did a half-track, it might have 4000 more parts than even this. 😂😂

Superb work, John! If Miniart ever did a half-track, it might have 4000 more parts than even this. 😂😂 Maybe 6000. The one with the most wins! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The next big thing in the modelling world should be the reduction of parts. It has become a bad joke this huge part count thing.

And we have primer. The bad thing is that while i was spraying primer, parts from the rear left running gear broke. I don't think they will stay in place when i' ll place the rubber band tracks. If that happens it is getting shelved. Primer was sprayed on the front rubber wheels as well. Maybe if i paint them they wont crack, something that happens to many rubber wheels.

Nicely primed J. . Take it easy with those tracks later

You're not alone at breaking parts buddy. Yesterday I broke the front section of one of my Me262 fuselage halves. Luckily the nosewheel compartiment came to the rescue to line up the part's parts again.🫣I immediately secured the clumsiness with cyano glue.

Looking fine in the primer but can't wait to see this camo scheme.

Would be a shame to stop it.. can't you put a pin through it?
