Yep!
And not only this - there are three options for armor signs: Clear, british and polish. This affects armor skin, turret skin, etc.

Another small detail - front fenders.
Nothing special, just to watch for straight angles when attaching.

And here i start another big stage in the model - suspension+wheels+tracks!

Tracks already done and waiting aside, so it's a half of assembling... Actually it's a half of whole model, if you count by parts

I started with drive shaft casing.
Spend 2 evenings to assemble those and in the end they will be all covered with sprockets. Halinski defined next level of "no shortcuts" :D







Fenders and casings are attached to their places

For any of you, who wondered what are those ribs on drum casing - those are reinforcing ribs, so the casing won't band under tension power of moving track.
Thanks for this info to fellow comrade on local forum.

And i continue with front sprockets.
Those are with interesting shape and given in two types, as you can see on second photo. So don't do a mistake and cut them all, you need only eight.













After assembling them i connected a little chain of tracks to see how it seets on sprocket - looks good.



Dry fitted them in place. Will glue in later stage, when chain will be put on.

Excellent as always Igor.

I was interested that they give you three different marking options. Very impressive. Have you decided yet which ones you are using?

Yes, you are right, there are there options of markings. I'm sorry i didn't mention that earlier.

If you go back to drivetrain pictures you'll see that i chose 1st squadron of the 2nd Armored Regiment of the Polish 1st Armored Division markings. I just liked those over british and blank ones. I think i even saw exactly this one in some armor festival video on Youtube. Just can't find it...
