Great stuff! Your photo setup is really making the model proud.
How are you planning on attaching the tools with all the clamps in place? (i struggled with that on my pz.iv build)

Thanks Bill and Johan!
I am not going to put any tools as I will finish it as abandoned vehicle. But they are workable anyway so in case I would like to put something in I can open them and close again.

Roman,
What a lovely clean build! I like the empty tool clamps, makes it look more interesting in a way! Perhaps I'm being dense, but how do you paint it with the wheels and tracks on?

Hi Steve, thanks.
Wheels and tracks are not glued on that model, I will paint and weather them separately. But I have experience with painting everything on. It is not possible to keep separate sub-assemblies on smaller models, for example.
