hello all. i was wondering if anyone could help me. i tried searching the forums but couldn’t figure out what key words to use. but my question is. how was the additional tank tracks installed on top of the panzer tanks, usually on the front plates or hanging off the top of the panzer ivs? also how were the spare tires held on to on the panthers turrent? and help would be appreciated. i know that styrene might be involved. this is all for 1/35 scale. thanks. joe
i personally think most track links were welded on in the field or were hung on welded on hooks.for my tank models i go through my spare parts and use S hooks and L shaped stuff and glue them right to the hull. i also have a bunch of reference books that actually show welded on hooks. it looks better than the links just hovering there.
