I also follow this, from the start, with interest. I got myself this old, little kit a while ago, it will be one of my next projects, so thank you for presenting your work.

Finished in a very short time. It is a simple kit with almost no issues:
- the tank tracks and the wheels are one piece. In this scale it is ok. Noone wants to see rotating wheels in 1:76 😉 But in the instruction sheet (I think) it is wrong: The single wheel is in the front, but on the painting instructions and the picture of the real carrier it is on the rear side. So I did it this way.
- the driver figure is a man without legs. And I can find no place where legs could have been. 😉
- The carriage of the gun lets you make rotating wheels. I managed it to make them work, but it is unnessesary.
- the decals have wide transparent overlaps. But with gloss - decal - matt varnish that is almost invisible.
- For the first time I tried an airbrush for felt-pens to apply little stains of mudd and dust. It worked. Now it doesn't look fresh from production but a little bit used. In this scale models quick become "overweathered" - my opinion. In a diorama it would be ok.
I had fun building this tiny thing! 😄
