Good work Phil.
Those tracks have the pins for the separate links?
I did my first set for panzer III and thought they were easier to do then they looked.



Yes, they do. They went together splendidly and worked smoothly.

I got a set of Ryefield Panther tracks that work on the same idea, but the pins are very short and they come apart (and break) too easily.

Very nicely turned out Phil. A real 'Green Machine". Glad to see you finish this one.

Cheers

I've put the build back in the box. No motivation at all. My busy head wants me to do other things to relax, simply do what comes on my path for the day.
So will not finish this one.

I hear you, Robert!

I've been through this with another campaign build... motivation lost and time running out.

The only consolence is- there will always be Unfinished Builds campaign to participate with these shelf queens.

I have found those infamous microscopic Bronco parts on my build. There is not a lot, but i already lost 2 pieces..
The humidity in my modeling room stopped my progress, along with not finding those parts

Looking forward to see your Chaffee build, Lap Man!

"Lost and Found" is a tricky game with Bronco parts, Marc
Hope you manage to bring your Pz.III to the finish line!

I've been off to a week of holiday and next comes another week of holiday(poor me...SWMBO rules with holidays).
But I decided to run my Bronco participant in Manta Model Show(Sep.19-20), so I'll be rushing to finish it when I (finally) come home.

Well... time flies...

I managed to finish my participant today- here is my Bulgarian KdoGer.40 telemeter:




Pictures will be uploaded to Campaign gallery shortly.

Good luck with finishing your participants and if you need some extra days- just let me know.
