Default RE: Blue Star Models Hetzer Resin Kit

I also have one. I was supposed to do a kit build review for Dave but life got in the way. Very sorry Dave, I did not live up to my commitment, my bad!. My thoughts to reinforce the lower hull involves 3-4 plys of fine fiberglass cloth/resin with a couple of aluminum or light gauge steel in key areas. I also have acquired 1:25th scale Panther track for rc use. BTW you can still buy the track and sprockets thru Tamiya if you look under parts in the discontinued items. They also have motor/gear boxes and some misc other parts. My project is still in a box behind several years of other projects. Life is getting short!!.
