Hi all
Built this quickly for the indirect line of fire campaign. Added the legends stowage set. Any comments welcome.

Hi Brett,

Excellent work. Love the finish to your tracks. All round grand job. Nice one.

Al

Nice work Brett,
I like the cluttered, used workspace feel of the gun compartment.
Cheers

You built that quickly? Wow, an incredible job.Nice weathering also Bob

Gotta get rid of the antigravity track effect. The top run of the track should rest on the return rollers, not hover above them (a common problem with vinyl track). Since Academy uses real vinyl, plastic cement won't work. Easiest fix is to put a dab of white glue on the top of the rollers and wedge some cardboard between the top of the track and the sponson to hold the track down until it dries. Alternatively, you could use five minute epoxy or possibly Walther's Goo.

Overall very nice. Weathering done well. The breech block should be a steel color not painted. The ammo fibers were cardboard cylinders with painted tin ends. The ends were more "shiny" than the tubes. A touch of clear satin finish on the endcap would do the trick.

As I said, nice work overall.

Rounds Complete!!

Brett a cool and quick piece of modelling was wanting to get this kit but had heard a lot of bad things what did it go together like and what would you score it as a good or bad kit.The ledgends stowage really makes it look a verey busy looking model thanks for sharing. Any build up shots

No build up shots I'm afraid. I have mixed feelings about this kit and Academy in general. I live in South Korea, so I have a soft spot for them and also they are cheap ($17 for this kit). If you fill in the knock out marks and some sinkholes it would look pretty decent. Also, Voyager do a PE set now, so it would look super cool I think.

I think it's worth buying. I had a slight problem mating the upper superstructure to the hull. You need a lot of dry fitting. Get it right before painting.

I built and painted it in 3 assemblies: the gun the hull and the superstructure. I think overall I would reccomend this kit. When you are building it, you get annoyed about the faults, but when it is finished you think wow, better than I expected.

That really looks like a very nice build Brett. Well done mate!

Nicely done M7. Like the storage and weathering. The tracks could be shortened by a link to fit better but overall excellent.
