Well, here it is... my progress on Tamiya's Panzer KampfwagenV (sd.kfz171) 1/35th scale. I would say I've spent about 14 hours total on this, I just finished yesterday, glueing the upper and lower hulls, after a good deal of dismay of finding out that Tamiya's instructions conflict on two pages in the positioning of the handholds/handles for the front driver and radio operator's hatches, where one diagram shows the handholds to be placed to the rear of the hatches, and the next page showing it to the front. Upon questioning on armorama and doing some investigative research, it appears the handholds go to the front, my thanks to Stormbringer for helping me with this. Here are the pics!
The above is before I found out about the panels/handles.
