Great tank kit

I like how this kit looks in the end, the details are nice and clean and the instructions were pretty clear for the most part. There were a few parts that were pretty fiddly to get into place so you'll really want some good tweezers if you've got clumsy fingers! The model went together quite well with no real gaps, I just had to squeeze the parts together tight until the glue cured--no big deal.
Two main issues--first, the breech of the gun is way too long to fit properly inside the mantlet and needs to be trimmed. Secondly the struts that support the side skirts if you choose to include them need to have the bottom 'pin' trimmed off--I imagine that the larger kit has holes for these to go into that the 1/56 version does not. It was a bit confusing at first and a great example of why it's a good idea to dry fit parts.
A final nitpick for me is that the main hatch is modelled open with no option for it to be closed. Maybe I misunderstood the part but it didn't look right trying to fit it in closed. There's no second hatch part like there is for the MG hatch. Again, not a big deal.
Overall, really good looking kit that has a couple of minor issues that are easily dealt with and don't affect the end result.
