Hi everyone,

as a first step in my project (copying exactly the foto of an 38 (t) in heavy duty) I began to mount the lower hull. And surprise, surprise: The Maquette-kit (Pz 38 (t) A-D) doesnŽt have the cheracteristic double-line of rivets on both gear sides. Though I am no rivet-counter, I spent one afternoon to correct this heavy mistake by cutting rivets from the bottom glueing them to the rear side. Note the scratch-built smoke pods on the back. (I still have to fix a couple of chains to them).

IŽll keep You posted ...
