"tyres" now complete - put the "chassis" aside for a while

missed a day of photo - no power at home yesterday, but this is the result - i reinforced some of the vertical parts with glue.

In the end it all goes together quite well.

Wheels are a little askew, moon-mudguards are horrible!

Some subjects suit the MetalEarth format better than others. This is one that really suits, especially when such a good job of assembly is done as is the case here. 👍

Album info
Continuing on my "Space" theme with MetalEarth.
Pretty tricky build, especially the final page where you have to marry the chassis with the upper body.
Oh, and the "moon-mudguards" are horrible - would be better sliced into smaller segments.
End result is still pretty cool!!!
