Oh man, Eastern Express is an experience. I saw a thread on Karopka where a guy was putting it together, basically you have to re-rivet the whole turret... karopka.ru/forum/forum188/topic5910/

Re-rivet the whole turret??? It doesn't have rivets? or are they in the wrong place?
Hehehe no way. I don't think I'm that good with rivets. 🤔
But thanks for the heads up. 👍

It does, but a common problem with older kits is massive gaps between panels. With welded armour it's not an issue to fill and sand, but with riveted armour the sanding process will destroy the rivet details.

So, if I understand correctly, the problem is the massive gaps between panels? 🙁

Someone said the same about the hood/bonnet in the
scalemates.com/kits/941755-esci-5018-sd-kfz-10-4
But I didn't find it so bad when I did the model. As I recall, I found that the real problem was a downwards bent forward part of the chassis. Correcting that was easy.
So I will keep my fingers crossed.
