Carl,
It's looking splendid! A two part camo will be eye catching for certain. As for the tracks and road wheels, my friend, you may want to add a little tension with your excellent Henntec idler adjuster. I say this only because the tracks are standing a little proud of the sprocket at rest. Following along.
regards,
Painless

Yes indeed Mr Painless . I think once the gearboxes arrive and are installed the entire drive system and tracks can be dialed in I am currently working on things to pass some time until some packages arrive.... Thanks for checking it out my friend! The 35rctank kits are custom made to order so hopefully mine is ready to ship soon.
Tanks alot.... :wave:

Quite fancy one of these - the size is appealing if it was battle ready compatible.

I'm not sure about the 35rctank conversion kit but I'm sure someone on the forum could figure something out. The size is excellent for battling. Of course if it was hit it couldn't take much as a light tank if setup as so.Image

I also wanted the best of both worlds when I did my White Tiger. Camo over grey.
Looked ok, then I went & covered it all in white-wash anyway :/

Great choice of paint scheme, looking forward to seeing how it ends up :thumbup:

So today very good news on the RC conversion kit.

I was contacted and advised that my conversion kit will be completed and shipped this weekImage

Feels like its been an eternity but the benefit to the wait is the panzer 38-t is completely prepared and ready to receive the conversion kit!

I must add the communication from this seller has been excellentImage

Here is a link to the kit and it's contents.
