Running gear and tracks are just dry fitted for now.

It's an eggcellent kit, all the parts fit eggsactly how they should, no yolk, I'm not eggsaggerating! And only cost £7, I was shell-shocked at the eggceptional value. :crazy:

Paint next, which should henhance it. :scratch::

Hey guys, what do you mean puns?! :tongue:

Just a quick boiled update. Nothing eggciting really. Got the primer down, should be a nice shell to start on.

Henyway, henough clucking, here's a pic.

That's all for now, been cooped up in the den all day, off for a drink. I'm spitting feathers here!
