Crusader II Tank (2)

great kit and i really like its easy assembly. I recommend it to average and above average model builders,

It is really nice to see a company produce early-war vehicles which are virtually unobtainable elsewhere unless they are Russian or German. These tanks, while not having extras such as a tank commander, are well detailed and the new price offered by Hobbylinc at a 40% discount of the old prices, are superb value. A must-have for early to late North African conflice.

well the tracks are one piece and glue to the lower hull into a half circle engraved into the hull. Not the best way to put tracks on but it works just take care the tracks don't slip while the glue dries i did this by letting the hull rest upside down while i build the upper hull and turret. the upper hull was very easy just 5 parts . The turret is glued top and bottom plus the face plate. the gun doesn't elevate as it is simply stuck into a slot in the mantlet and install the roof hatch. The instructions don't show the tool box which is glued to the back of the turret, you will have to scratch build a machine gun that is mounted next to the main gun as none is provided. you then snap the turret on the upper hull. Then glue the hulls together take not the hulls just sit on top of each other as there is no real mountings. the last piece then is the side skirts they go easily but still no real mounts just glue to the fender. and that's it 2 crusader tanks.
