Many years has past. All these years I was waiting for tracks. And it was aproved. Some months ago Masterclub has produced two types of tracks for Ka-Mi. And work has continued!
This tracks are really beautiful!

I agree, plus it gave me an idea for my used fishing line as I am about to respool a few rods.

Very good news that you have picked up your old project again. I look very much forward to seeing the next updates.
One question, you have bought both he early and late tracks. Does this mean that you will build both versions?

Hi,Theo! Indeed! Now I am happy
Modellers from Russia have researched that on both types of the track were in one link at the same time. Every seventh track was late type. The rest six before it- early type.
We can see it on this picture. I have other picture but I promoced not to publish them.

Sir, your detailing and model building abilities are so great it almost makes me want to give up on my own!
(It case there are any doubts, that WAS intended as a compliment!)
Amazing!

Artyom,
I'm glad you're back at this one, I'd wondered about it. I have a set of Fruil Model type 97 tracks I was planning on using, they seem to match the kit tracks almost exactly-- but now I'm going to have to compare them with yours. Your work is as always exceptional-- looking forward to the rest of your build.
VR, Russ

Greetings,Russ! I am very glad too. I think you should buy this tracks. but I suggent not to be like a perfectionist like me and buy one kit (early or late). They are really good and I think they are better than Friulmodel.
I have a little review but it's in Russian....
And thank you for pleasant work about my works

I have always felt the DD Shermans would have faired far better if they had just taken to the same "float" solution the Japanese utilized. Rather than going with the inflatable skirt that put the tank already 6-10 feet below the water'line upon starting out.
Was not there something designed along those lines? Perhaps with pontoons on all four side surrounding the tank? Now that would be an interesting "what if"!

I wish this had existed on D-Day in Europe. More good men (and tanks) would have made it to the beach.

Yes,that's very sad. By the way first series of Ka-mi were demaged or destroyed on the beach. Their turrets didn't help them.
