Wheels on!

After only a few hours of building the wheels and their carriers have been glued to the hull of the Italeri Kangaroo APC. Having carefully assembles the carriers the all the wheels rotate which will make painting much easier. The two box like fittings on the rear of the hull are the sir intakes which is something never knew before building this kit.

Not only have I managed to keep the wheels free and rotating I also managed to keep the carriers and suspension full articulated as well. The drive and tensioner wheels also rotate which will help when being painted and also may make fitting the tracks easier.

With, in effect, a rolling chassis, it is now time to think about the upper hull which will bring some further life to this model. As the upper hull is open to the elements there are numerous details to add such as the two rifles in their holder on the side piece nearest the wheels. Hopefully there will be nothing too delicate parts wise for me to loose or break! Famous last words!
