The airintakes fit perfectly. I have to sand them a bit, and then glue.

Looks good.
@Jee, have you found any good, detailed walkaround pics of the SU-76i?

I have most info from Yuri

He writes really a lot of articles
I also just found this:

And I have some other "walk around" from the same tank, I can put them on google drive for you if you want them. ah found them, Yuri on facebook:
to be honest, I think the hatch on the back from the last series is not ok, it was a double doors hatch opening to the sides
found one more:

I too am currently working on one of these, though mine is the vandra kit. It is missing a few pieces. Not missing as in lost, missing as in not part of the kit. For me the main part that should be there that wasn’t is the stowage bins. Of which I need to make some. The second part missing though for me is optional are the fuel/oil tanks on the back. I’m sure anyone who has built one of vandras will notice many other bugbares I know I have but it’s good to see another being made to compare to.
I do how ever notice from the photos that there are two variations of the gun mantlet/shield

I made the bins and drums my self as i was not happy with the ones in the kit. If you have a 3d printer i can sent you the files?

I am not sure there are two versions. I do know they added the shield later after testing.
