That's something I will never have the patience to do. looks great! Do the dowels remain in place or do you remove them and replace them with paper?

I think I'll keep the dowels,.. Although I could roll paper to the same size,.. Dowels are an easier way out. Plus once painted no one will know. ;-) they look oversized but this particular warhammer tank is supposedly made from scrap and the drive wheels have sprockets on the outside that are chunky,.. Most of my reference shows the dowels type part to stick out like that.

You are halfway there. You can do it. What other uplifting things would help you out?

How about "As soon as you begin the second track you're more than halfway home. It's all downhill from there!"

If you think that those tracks are tedious, try to embellish each road wheel with spokes and stuff. Good work on the tracks. If you put that much effort on the tracks, the rest of the body will be fantastic.

Thanks Silver!,. I'm planning on making the wheels dimensional,.. And when I paint this bad boy it's gonna have chipped paint and rust etc,.. The painting of it will be the most fun! The photos don't show it but I used glue for the rivets once I spray this with a primer coat the rivets will be more pronounced!

Fun thing about it being a scrap tank: you can make errors and noone would be the wiser!

If you looked at my Baneblade, the rivet work is made using drops of glue. I layered the drops 3x times and they do stand out. There are so many rivets on the baneblade, that when I finished one set, the glue dots had dried and I started over again. Have fun and waiting to see more updates.
