Thanks Freddy. The centurion I had from you had 3D printed wheels and were very smooth and no printing marks.

I'll add my own exclamation point to the kudos already stated. A must watch build.

just talked to Chris; he'll change printing parameters for the released kit to get optimized results. 8)

Any word yet on kit pricing? I'll shelve my new Pz1 kit for this puppy.

the price is not fixed yet. I guess it'll be a little more than the Panzer I because the size is a little larger. The price will be set, when the kit is ready for ordering (approx. upcoming spring).

I guess it'll be around late spring / early this summer, because there are some modifications in progress :)
Thats the reason why less progress is to report…
