Thought I would put a couple of more progress pics of the Stuart for your hopeful enjoyment and comments. This is just a fun little build so far [:)]. Let me know if you see something to improve upon.
Changed the seat colors to the correct black color and tried a little weathering on them.
Progress with the indi tracks so far. Let me know if they are looking allright or if I need to do some corrective measures.
As always i appreciate your comments as they have always improved my results. Thanks.
Your Stuart is really looking great Chris … very clean build on the exterior and your interior is nicely weathered.
One small comment on the tracks before you get too far. Stuart tracks, like the Sherman tracks, are “live” so they have very little noticable sag. They should be a very straight and flat run across the top of the return rollers and skids. I have attached a pic that shows that. Hope this helps a bit.
Your build really makes me want to go out and get one of these little beauties !!!
Thanks for sharing Chris.
Thanks everyone.
Robert- thanks for the pic. I was figuring that they needed to be straightened out some, right now thy are just laid on top. It is a fun little build , I would recommend the kit even if the interior is inaccurate. I’ve not noticed any real fit problems or anything this far into it other than the lower machine gun, just had waller the hole out a bit more to get the gun through it.
Looks great Chris. You seem to be moving right along. Glad you’re not letting the detail problem get you down. Think of this one as a warm up for the super detail job you’re going to do later [;)]
