To start are a couple of shots of the TL 37 Im going to use. For my dio, and I hope to pull it off, Im going to place a war photographer with his Driver/ artillaryman near by. The photographer will be setting up his equipment ,his nerves on full alert( God knows we need more Lerts) and the driver watching near by. It will be set in the sand (duh) The vehicle is just about ready for its paint and I hope to keep up to date posts as I progress. On a side note this is my first resin kit and what a joy it has been to assemble!

Very nice looking piece.... how much "fiddling and filing" was required to get a good fit?

Growing up well John. I don't know if is due to the picture but it sems that it needs a bit of extra sanding at the bottom of the piece between the two wheels to "straighten" it up, and a light sanding to the railing at the rear...

KFMagee..Had to file alot here and there,otherwise it fit together very nicely. This is my first resin kit and if they are all like this it will by no means be the last.
