I tried to put a set of Tiger I tracks on a late Tiger I to test out fitment. I am the type that likes to paint roadwheels off the model and same with track, then install.... so running gear is on, ready to go for the tracks
So..... I primed the tracks black, painted dark gray, rustalled a bit and when dry, threw them in some hot water to soften ... I was able to bend nicely around the sprocket and idler but they colled so quickly, I they ended up breaking often and probably because Im painted BEFORE, the CA was not holding the track around sproket well, tried piecing a bunch of broken runs together and it looks ok, but extremly frustrating trying to get it right. I bought these for some ease of assembaly but now have a ton to use and did not love the first exp. I personally like the Dragon DS tracks and wish they sold them separatley
Maybe I have to learn to paint in situ as one of the other memebrs noted? I'm determined to use them but need some help from the experts
Any ideas would be great guys (besides sell them to you guys at half price
)
