Hi everyone,

Please find below some in-progress pics of my AS-90. It's basically an OoB build except for the following:

Tarp made out of tissue paper
Custom headlight guard made from stretch sprue
Added a few details on the tools and ammo boxes
Replaced tow cable with copper wire









Hope you like it so far. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Wanze

Looking good so far. How are the link and length tracks?

Good looking build. I've got one and the Eduard PE set for it. It's on my to do list, perhaps for the artillery group build coming up.

Hi Charles,

I did not find much diffiuclties with the link and length tracks. Imy copy came together well.

Hi Sabot,

Thank you for kind comments. Oh, I did not know about the artillery group build.I guess this build will no longer qualify. Anyway, I can choose between Panzerhaubitze 2000 and a Hummel for the group build.

Thanks,
Wanze
