So there we go with another kit
I'm gonna build the 1:35 Tamiya Char B1 bis. I don't have decided yet which marking option I will use (the kit have four different marking options, three germans and one french). Probably I will build a diorama with this kit, we will see. For now the classic photos of the kit

As normal with Tamiya it fits well and looks good. I'm sure you will make it even better.

Ok guys, I started as usual with the wheels. I never built a Char B1 bis but how strange are those wheels
Wheels
Complete axis with the wheels
Next I'm gonna attack those axis with the lower hull and start with the suspensions
