Arhh those dreaded mud scrapers, sorry I didn't mention those Dude 1, thinking back I completely messed mine up , for got to fit them ! and had to remove the sprockets wheels and do it again when I went to put some Fruils on.
Thanks John, I love that song! Something about snowberries I believe?Tim this will certainly do:
Yes something like that according to the comments, there's something about a mass choir in full voice . Think the soloist must be some well known Russian singer forced into uniform !Thanks John, I love that song! Something about snowberries I believe?

Didn't he, along with many others of the ensemble, lose his life in a plane crash a couple of years ago? Certainly has/had a great voice.Yes something like that according to the comments, there's something about a mass choir in full voice .

I’ve got pictures of the stage for that being built We were on holiday in East Germany at the time (my parents had said in late ’89: “We’re going there before the DDR ceases to exist”) and I recognised the construction for what it was, so I took a few photos as we drove past.Berlin in 1990, on Potsdammer Platz. Roger Waters did "The Wall"
Yep, forgot the holes on the front plate Allen Didn’t make any difference though, the slot that’s also supposed to locate the appliqué armour part wasn't there anyway LOL…Thanks Paul. I like to use wire for grab handles too, but these would be too hard to make. I recently bought the Trumpeter clamp set to make them. Haven't tried it out yet......
Thanks too Andrew, I've amassed a collection of paints over the years. I still rely on some of the old stuff and they work well after all these years.....
Tim, I looked at your kit's destruction sheets on Scale Mates and you are right....They are a soup sandwich for sure. They look like something from Dragon. You have a few of the same sprues in that kit like I do, but they are lettered/numbered differently. I also see that you have no etch and have link and length tracks too. You're a lucky dog Tim!!! Double check carefully, as sometimes you have to drill out a hole from the inside to mount parts. I made that mistake twice, but it worked out ok. My destructions would also have you make holes on the opposite side from where the parts actually go, but there were no starter holes. Then you look at the other side and there they were...Huh!!!! We just have to love this hobby!!!........Drive on!!!
Jakko, if you have any copies of the photos, please post them up here if you can. It would be a great flashback to see them......

Allen if I'd have known you could have had my trumpeter clamp benders ,perhaps I've been using them wrong but quicker and easier to just use pliers and the kit part as a pattern. Perhaps brass rod is too strong for them but you'd have to source copper in diffrent gauges or wobbly lead wire let us know when you use them mean time I'll stick with my pliers, oh and good work so far having just done this one in 72nd looking forward to what seems a monolithic piece of plastic.

Wow, old spice alert…..I’ve got the Orff version on disc. It’s superb! For goosebumps though nothing beats the first orchestral tutti in the Elgar Cello concerto played by Du Pre. Absolutely spine tinglingSpeaking of goosebumps, Carmina Barana always makes me want to go rescue maidens or subdue invaders, even if played poorly. A couple good ones are conducted by Orff, one in the US with a huge chorus at Temple College I think & one W/Sudjc Simfonijski arkestar Hor RTS.
