Wow! All that in a couple of hours? Yikes, man... Maybe you need to slow down and push it around on your bench going "vroom, Vroom!" occasionally - let the rest of us get a little closer to catching up!


It really looks like an interesting kit - I keep looking at it and thinking that maybe I'll order one. Seeing it come together makes me think more on doing this sooner...
About the tracks and running gear and that lower hull painting issue...
Maybe you can assemble the tracks onto the wheels and rollers, set whatever sags you desire, and then remove that entire set-up for separate painting and re-attachment at the later stages of the build? I "always" do it sort of like that - allows me to paint and weather the entire hull at one go, followed by attaching the assembled wheels-and-track-runs as a unit.
In this (and other cases where there are various side-skirts and covers that hide the upper runs, rollers, etc.) case, maybe those runs only need to incorporate the visible wheels - leaving stuff not to be seen after completion in place - including the rollers and hidden top run segments (which I would consider simply skipping building and painting). Doing this would allow you to attach and mount all the side skirts and fender stuff for painting with the rest of the hull, and you would "just" slide the lower (visible portions) track and wheels up into place under the skirts after all the rest is painted.
Just a thought on this...
Cheers! Bob
