Hi, Hang in there. You'll get 'em done. You're a heck of a lot farther along than I am on the Trumpeter K5 and I've had mine ever since they came out. And I've been working on the Dragon Pz.IV for around 6 or 7 months and it's still some ways off. I also have a big T-34 from Trumpeter that's been sitting around about 1/4 done and I have no idea just how long that will sit before I get back to it.

But a rather big accomplishment, for me at least, was finishing up the Tamiya Stug. III Ausf. B in just 3 weeks!!

Take care, Larry

Hi Karl, No I didn't run into any ejector pin marks on mine to amount to anything. The biggest fault I found on it was that over all it reminded me of Tamiya's stuff they made back in the '70s and '80s. I guess I automatically compared it to Dragon's "super" kits of late, so I was somewhat disappointed. I didn't even use the Fruilmodel tracks on it, just the "rubber band" ones that came with the kit.

All in all, it's an okay kit, but nothing to get all that excited about, unless you're looking to built this specific AFV.

Take care, Larry
