I have a few things which would be suitable for this build - 2 x St Chamond, CA Schneider, FT17, MkIV, an old Truro A7V and Fiat 3000, a couple of 1/72 MB MkI's and a few unfinished scratch builds - 1/35 Fiat Tipo 2000, 1/48 Whippet and 1/72 15" howitzer
What I don't seem to have is a lot of time so I went for the Meng Whippet that my sister got me last Christmas - not too many parts and it is really just an assembly job rather than a full on modelling so hopefully won't take long to complete.
It will be a bit odd not having to chop it into pieces before starting
It's a long time since I made anything out of the box so here we go.......
very nicely moulded of course being a new kit
main hull already completed without much hassle - just some injector pin stubs on the rear faces that need removing to allow panels to fit together properly
start made on the track units
the individual track links are nicely moulded and click together although I will probably glue them once I have a full set made up
