I'll fill it in anyway with a section cut from the left over pieces. I really do wonder why both tracks were short by that amount thogh.
Cheers
At least it's consistent.

Okay people. I fixed that gap in the lower track runs.
First I cut off the half links on the tracks that were already in place. That was to create a space for the additional tracks to fit better.
Here's the gap that needed filling.
Here is an image of one of the extra short track lengths included in the kit. Beneath it you can see the section of track I cut out to fill in the gap on the track runs.
Here is the lower run with the gap closed. I like how it turned out.
I just finished painting the tracks with Delta Creamcoat Brown Iron Oxide as a base coat. Once that's cured I'll paint the ID stripes on the front of the hull sides and start the weathering.

Okay, I'm just about done with the tank now. I decided NOT to do much weathering because for the time being I'm going to have it on a base that simulates the inside of a building such as a museum. I'm using a city/park bench (perhaps two) from Mini Art and six assorted figures from Master Box.
The scene is going be Grandad sitting on a bench with his family gathered round whilst he reminisces about his times in a tank during The Great War.
Here is a rough out of how I intend to pose the figures near the tank.
A bit closer view of the bench and the figures.
I'm going to title this one; "REMEMBERING".
I'll be painting the figures with various acrylics such as Folk Art, Crafter's Choice, Delta Ceramcoat and so on.
Cheers

Coming down to the wire here.
I got the base colours of the clothes onto the figures. Ignore the dog in this image.
I'll be finishing these off in the next day or two and then adding them to the scene with the tank.
