Chaps. In an attempt to keep my modelling sanity, something I can stick, not wrestle together.  |

Very nice, Mence! You also have made the first post in this category so you are a true plank owner now.
Best wishes,
Ian

Tis about time somebody dropped a post in here , to be honest I was thinking of it myself yesterday. But I ain't got anything fitting in the stash  . Nice choice Mence, and I am looking forward to this |

I’ve still got mine on the shelf of shame waiting to be finished. Enjoy the wheels as there’s only a few of them.

Chaps. As Jabbly rightly points out, the 2C is not short of wheels, 74 sets of road wheels with more to be added on top.  It's actually not as bad as it seems to sort them, just glad there are no rubber tyres to paint later.  Cheers. |

Wow! That's a fair few wheels to sort, looking good mind you |

And always thought the Panther or Tiger was a nightmare . Nicely sorted Mence |

Tiger II wheels would be child's play compared to 74 wheels on this beast. Nicely done, thus far.
Best wishes,
Ian

Chaps. Twenty retaining pieces in place so no more wheels at the mercy of the Carpet Monster.  |

Chaps. No self respecting 2C would be seen in battle without its 'tail', so...  Nicely detailed, after a bit of cleanup.  And with a bit of careful sticking.  Should look good primed and painted. |

Looks amazing sir! The big amount of wheels looks great and worth the effort.

Chaps. Read somewhere that a few people encountered fit issues fitting the upper and lower hulls together after fitting the sides. I dispensed with the instructions and have glued the upper and lower hull before the sides to be sure. Any problems now will be...err... dealt with. First dry fit of the tail adds to the bulk.  Thank you. |
