Sal, Thanks for the step-by-step. Are the track links made to snap together or just fit snug to be glued? A good looking model except the poor fit of the vision ports is disappointing, although probably easy to fix.

Tracks are wrong as they are fictional. They should represent 650mm wide tracks but scale out at 700mm.
