I have recently been working on a 1/35th scale T-18 early soviet tank. Though the peices dont fit together very well that can easily be fixed. I've got everything put together, but I'm stuck on the tracks. They are really small, individual pieces and they dont even fit together evenly. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Hi Katyusha, welcome to the forum.I'm also experiencing that problem with indy tracks. Maybe you should replace them with tank tracks made by AFV or Accurate Armor.

AFV Club or Accurate Armour dont make any tracks for the T18
theres only one way of doing them and thats the hard way im afraid
you should try the Dragon Sherman tracks three peice tracks

HI, Check out my tip on useing Latex rubber, to help join the tracks together. I posted a picture in the gallery section that may help illustrate the technique. I hope to do a series of pictures that will help illustrate the whole process.
