I'm still sticking track to wheels have to do this a bit at a time, at the minute it seems to be working.
When this is done I can touch up the fender before moving along.
Three weeks to go

OK the offending fender is all fixed, well as good as it can be, track are on and are really rubbery, not a lot more I can say about these, they are still impervious to any known glue Time to move on

Looks the dogs from here Robbo, you’d never know that the tracks were those bandy types!

You would if you got hold of it Steve
Do you think I should go for a lighter wash on the tracks to make the detail pop out? Like a light earth or a lighter rust again like on the spare links?

Thank you all kindly, I've just touched up the track as there was a lot of glue marks showing. I will give the track a lighter rust wash then finish them off with graphite pigment, get a bit of a shine on them
Just been working on my secret build and you want to see what I've just done to put something right, clever bugger if I do say so myself, you'll see soon enough

Nice save indeed Mr.R . She looks darned good to me too fella, if it was my build I would a little bit of dry pigmentization just for the sake of of it, but that is my way of doing things
