Artyom,
Just caught up on your build.
First, I am sorry for your loss, it is bad enough on its own without the complications of this virus.
As for the build - all the compliments have been posted, so cannot add more :thumb2:
Mike.

Greetings,friends! I've started work I always hated =)) Yes, track links in progress. They consist of two parts. Plastic is hard and doesn't glue well. I work with great patience. In comparison tracks for Renault R-35 from Modelkasten. Renault is really smaller than A13 but tracks has similar dimensions. After all of that I will continue to make details on upper hull.

Greetings to all!
Bronco trucks are real garbage. I am very disappointed about that. It is very difficult to glue them. I think it's because of thick plastic. It was difficult to make the tension simulation typical of the A13. And Yes, the Bronco puts 4 sprues with tracks. One side takes two. So I have only three tracks left after assembling the chain. So if you lose or ruin some of them, there will be problems. In addition, the tracks are incorrect. The comb should be hollow.

So, I have finished track links. It was a really difficult task. But unfortunately, no opportunity at all. Tracks in chains are very fragile. So in future I need to work very carefully. And I decided to rework exhaust pipes. I have two A13 kits,so there were only four attempts. I made three. One in the dust bin ,two ready.
In comparison. Yellow before, green one after.
