Going to be fun getting this to settle in. I have not yet glued the upper and lower hull together.

Not your typical Tamiya fit, hope you can pull it together. Here's a barrel option if you can't save it.

There's a couple on E-Bay that are cheaper, but I can't make the link work. :idonno

:( Thats not like Tamiya - good luck with the rest of the build. I was going to pick one of these up but I think I may consider one of the other brands now. They would certainly be cheaper.

Hi Ian.
I still feel the Tamiya version is better than the DML/Dragon version. I think the barrel part of the build is my fault. On the Dragon version,the upper hull sits 2 mm too low. Plus,I think there are some other issues with the kit.

ISU-152. Barrel saved?

I think I was able to save the kit barrel. I go back out on the road tomorrow. I will smooth the putty out,clean it off,then primer it. :zen
