As you know this build came about because I thought people were a bit harsh on Roden and their kits ,a great believer in you get what you pay for ,as for the kit nice and clean no problems with construction ,rubber track were a bit old hat but hey the thing is about eighteen years old anyway ,I replaced the grab handles with copper wire but in this scale that's pretty much standard ,once primed lots of detail popped up ,I think you can still grab this kit for about a tenner I'd say worth every penny .
Struggled with the bottom half I'd rather paint tyres than tracks ,have tried hard to keep it rusty and dusty hence not a chip in sight so easy in this scale to go over the top before you know it ,so anyway all done a few bits deserved better but that's me being me .
