Do none of you read the threads you are posting to?

The idea for this build has been bouncing around in my head since the modem packed it in.
It's shape has always made me think of the Sandcrawler from Star Wars.
T-34 is 1/48 and is an interior detail kit.  I'll be leaving all that out and scaleoramaing it into 1/72.

It's an Antarctic Crawler (or a Snow Crawler from an ice planet - not decided yet).  The modem is just supplying the basic shape.

I think most Wiffers have a short memory span mate, it comes from the fact that their brains, or whatever passes for one in my case, are constantly bouncing around and coming up with new ideas and then drift off down another completely different path as soon as that idea crops up      Apparently Einstein had the same problem, but learnt to control it

But I've no idea what a Sandcrawler should look like anyway, let alone a Snowcrawler variant.

Clearly a Gentleman who hasn't seen Starwars 
Or remembers it 😁😁
But there's also the simple fact Chris is right ✅️
Even this morning drinking my coffee with my feet up I've been thinking about ideas 💡 🤔 🙃
Love it 😀
Kit do a search for Jawa sand crawler..you'll find it dead easy

Sometimes, but we choose to ignore them at our whim, as if we were cats and only want to do what we want when we want to.

Jawa Sandcrawler, as featured in Star Wars.

Aaaaah right. NOW I know what you're all on about. Thanks.

It is also what-iffed as sea and space going ships.

Glued some more styrene to the modem.

Glued the glazing into the window holes of the Stolly.  This isn't as easy as it sounds as I had to cut them from a sheet of thin plastic, fettle them to fit, and then find a glue which worked.  After trying and rejecting Tamiya extra thin and PVA I resorted to very carefully using gel super glue.
I then coated them with Future.

A handy hint there Fred, thanks. 

I'll have to do the same to mine, if I EVER get round to finishing it, that is.

Mate ..ain't there a CA glue out just for clear parts ?
This I might have to look into if there is.

AIUI, normal superglue can be ok if there is enough air movement to clear away the fumes that cause the fogging.
So a canopy is going to be fraught because the fuselage is closed up, but something open on both sides might be ok.
'Might'; there are a raft of variables and some folk don't have problems, whilst others do.

Putting Klear or similar on first can limit the fogging, and it's better if you can wipe the fogging off afterwards (see: canopies, above) but 'you pays your money and you takes your chances'.

I would avoid it myself and go for something less inimical, but it's an individual choice.
