Thanks awfully gentleman. I'm hoping to get a gloss coat of varnish on it early next week ready for weathering.

Sorry for the long gap since my last update. I've got way behind with this build, and with only a couple of weeks left on this GB. It being my suggestion, I thought it would be rather bad form not to finish my effort on time. I sprayed the tracks on the sprues ready to attach them to the hull. But first I'll have to give the hull a black wash and glue the wheels in place.

Thank you gentlemen. I've attached the tracks to the hull of the tank. I find the link and length tracks a bit fiddly, so what I done was put an elastic band around the wheels to hold the different tracks sections approximately in place in the order that Tamiya recommend. This allowed me to move them into the correct position before finally gluing them in place.

Joe, the tracks look great and excellent idea regarding the band.
