I'm not a fan of moulded plastic canvas tops but got to say that one looks great

Hi everyone, small update today,
M50 , I worked on the suspension.

Decals can be very weird at times, but the rest is moving in the right direction

Small update ::
KV-1, started chipping on the turret
and carried on the small tiny Panzer I, but the Testor's paint was almost solid, even with thinner, I think I will have to get another jar. That's too bad, I really liked that paint., I still have most of it inside but it's like a brown paste with sand & rocks....
Here you can see the bad decal..
Some paint on M1025,
And Dragon's Panzer IV Ausf.A, suspension and wheels

Small update ::
KV-1 , After the chipping, added filter & pin wash.
Panzer IV Ausf.A , ok, wheels & tires
I'm not going to bother with the "Continentau" lettering and scraping off the "u"...
There are two or three different types of wheel hubs on the sprues, these are the ones for this version. I will paint them and glue them before working on the Continental tire
More details on the Bronco GAZ 69 and some paint too.
Started the tracks for the tiny Panzer,
Without pin:
With pin :
After awhile I did these... but I noticed the pins are quite loose, so I might add some Tamyia glue later on.
Eduard Mig-19, Worked on the cockpit details,
And that was it for today !!
