I just posted a build of the PSC Pz IIIf on my blog, lots of pictures. Hopefully clears up some of the ambiguity in the instructions. link |

"PSC has again thoughtfully made the parts so that they cannot be assembled wrong" Oh, I've proved this false! Seriously though, nice review. |

Figuring out how to fit PSC tracks correctly is the key and the instructions are not too helpful with that and a few other things. Once you work it out (or have it pointed out by a halpful online review) they are really great to put together. |

They should've just made the track one piece like Armourfast and Italeri did for 1/72 with their quick-builds. People aren't going to complain about the loss of detail for 1/100. |

is there a 20mm one yet? would be very useffull |

I'm personally glad the detail is there in the tracks. I took an Armorfast M4 Sherman once and cut little V's to make rubber chevron tracks for the model… Damon. |

Perhaps it is because I come from a static scale modelling background that a model with a dozen or more parts is just no big deal, I prefer the better fit of the plastics. I have also heard people complain that a plastic model is too light, easy answer is to glue a couple of buckshot into the hull as you build. Garand you are a mad-man, that is a lot of X-acto work (I would have ended up with stitches) |
