Ian, you are being to heavily influenced by the gang . Chaps, I have sorted the first 15 or so sprues and also started on this mad journey . Somehow I don't remember this much madness with the T54-1, but hey maybe I'm just losing it . Here's the start of the suspension, as you can see I have added the right hand side, and even here you get multiple parts for the rear road wheel attachment. Also the mine roller attachments have been added, but only the top ones. The lower attachments are not on the vehicle I'm trying to build.  More soon chaps  . Mike, your move my friend |

It looks like Miniart threw up a load of sprues on your cutting mat Paul! I would have looked at that lot and quietly put them back in the box *.* Brave man, but at least your on your way |

Cheers Stevie dude  . I'm glad that I knew there would be a large parts count, but I must admit this did make laugh a tad |

Great start Paul,
Miniart kits look daunting when you see the sprues laid out 🤔

Post by Paul B on Sept 5, 2020 21:40:45 GMT
Cheers Si . Yes these kits are absolutely full to the brim of the box , but the detail is astonishing  . You really need a lot of patience when building these, but they are worth the effort |
