Bluetank´s M8A1 cargo tractor underway at last for the Blood, sweat and gears campaign. The whole bottom hull can be modelled seperately, which will make it easier to paint the tracks and running gear. The upper hull body and cab is only posed for photos.
AFV Club indy tracks used instead of the kit supplied rubbish. These tracks come already cut and cleaned. They slot together perfectly and are totally workable. Can be built and placed completely without cement. These are in position and cemented now. The "Y" shaped rubber pads are on a sprue and need to be superglued in place. I decided, since Im going to have to use superglue, to leave them off until the tracks are painted. Weathering will blend the rubber pads to the tracks afterwards.
As usual, all comments and critic are welcome.
