Hi all,
Got this kit for Christmas (it's the 4th panzer variant #35006) and was wondering if there was anything I need to know hidden in the Japanese writing on the instructions like 'do not use this part if building German vehicle' sort of thing
I'm thinking of adding some bolt heads to the extra armour on the glacis plate to make it look bolted to the spacers.
Any help greatly appreciated.
TTFN

Don't see any bolts in any of my photos of the eastern front tanks. It would appear the plates were welded in place.

Thank you Gerald. I'll leave the armour plate alone

If you can wait a few days until I get back home, I can give you what I've translated.

Gary,
That'd be great. There's no real hurry. I don't plan on starting it until early(ish) next year.
Just e-mail the translation at your convenience.

Thank's VERY much

Tom

EDIT:
Gary if you e-mail me delete the figure '1' from my address.
I've tried changing my address in 'my settings' but it keeps chucking my changes out.

Hopefully I have sent them to the correct email address. They are in Word format and not fully translated into 100% proper English. As I was looking them over, I found a mistake where I had skipped over a character when typing in the Japanese text to run through Babelfish.
