                        Try rapping some sand paper around a dowel or piece of styrene which can fit inside the space , I do all the time and it works great!

                        I just recieved my kit from Greatmodels today (yay) so construction will start pretty much straight away so kip an eye out for some progress pics as I build it!

                        Try a nail file. (emory board is small too) They are small, long and great sanders.

                        hey guys, hoe would I sand a really tight space that my snading equipment won't fit through?

                        I hate it when you lose important parts to the rug! it always makes the build that little bit more tedious!

                        my panzer 38 was the same way. the parts would shatter at first for some reason (still dont know why. i think they were biodegrading), and after I attached the PE fenders, I realized just what a bad idea that was to do then....god wut a pain in the arse that was

                        I found the pics of your tank on the armour forum and I now understand why everyones congratulating you , it's superb and I especially like all the extras you added on te side of the tank it just makes the whole thing that little bit more realistic.
                        So congrats on the bronze as it was very much deserved!!!

                        well, for model number 1, its more of a practice experience. It just needs some paint befor i move on. I havent started onany others yet. I have, i think 4 models that are waiting to get some paint.
