Hull assembled - no problems at all - the handrails may look symmetrical, but they aren't, I'd taken them off the sprue & cleaned them up before I realised, annoying.

I'll make the turret, and prime that before I spray on a basecoat on that and the hull. There are still a few bits to add, like the tool boxes, spades etc, but those will be left off until the end.
Only thing I can moan about is the 2-part barrel for the main gun - careful scraping & sanding needed! Yes, I could get an AM metal barrel, but that would be lazy ( and cost more! )

Looking good Dave, it's a rather enjoyable kit to build, glad to hear you're getting a bit of bench time without too much pain.
