I have been impatiently waiting for this kit since I first saw it announced. It is just so different from what we think of when we first think tank. Started in WWI 1916 there is a very good article here of its history. It never saw action in WWI but was developed in the 20's and used mostly for propaganda as far as all accounts I have read. I want to build Normandie even if it is just a monocolour scheme.
Meng released this late last year and mine arrived today.
Now first step is putting together the road wheels. All 74 sets. Step 2 is mounting them. Well I got half way through step 2 before I had to call a break. I might have gotten more done, but in a flash of no brilliance I decided to throw half the wheels onto the floor and under my desk.
Well I paid my dues retrieving them all and nary a one was lost. So here is where I am now, half way through step 2.
The casting of the kit is awesome. I think this will be a fun build despite my best attempts.
