The kit survived a crash from my work bench...was a hard one with parts falling off and photoetch-parts flying into Nirvana...had to reconstruct the whole front fenders and part of the fenders in the back with plastic card...But i also finished the Friul tracks and started to attach the small parts on the hull...
The Resin wheels are excellent. Just a little bit of trimming and the fit perfect.
Will now try to fix all the smaller parts on the hull (stowage boxes, tools,...)

The hull is comleted, just the shackles are missing. Will soon start with the turret. Care must be taken if someone wants to use the Eduard-photo-etch-parts...they tend to break very easily. And you have to sand them on both sides...otherwise the glue won´t get a hold on them.
The kit is nice, old but nearly no putty has to be used (so far)!

The build is finished, so now i ask myself if this tank can carry a Micky-Mouse-Camo...There is one surviving example in Saumur that wears a kind of that camo.
Before adding some color i will wash the complete vehicle with soap and hot water, using a brush to wash of all kinds of fat or rests of dust from sanding.
