Really coming together now mate

Cheers Mr White, I agree, it is indeed.
Getting the running gear right so the early tracks can run is the sole objective.

Well there's some progress You're gonna finish this next group build before the rest of us even start

It's getting there. Always liked the Ferdi/Elefant. Personally, I would make sure those nuts on the hull are either locktited or replaced with Nyloc nuts

Agree Mr Tankme.
Taken the line of using PVA glue to hold them in place without making things irreversible.
That way I can go back on my path & replace bits without too much misery!
There wont be many miles/kms put on this so it should hold up

Hub caps and suspension pivot caps are secured.
Mudguards are on
And I added an easily removable section of damaged front guard remnant to just take away the harsh finish to the right -front missing section as seen in the period pics.
Lots to do on the lower before moving onto the salacious casemate action

I'm stoked to have what will be a close enough Kursk Ferdinand...................

Onwards
