Assembling a LARS |
Step 1: Start by gluing the wheels in place. Take your time and try to make sure each wheel is straight and level – this is easier than it looks, because the axle is shaped to fit the recess in the wheels to help with stability and correct alignment. | Below: The 6 wheels attached correctly. |
Step 2: Glue the machine-gun into the mounting hole in front of the hatch. MG's are quite fragile, so some modellers paint them separately before attaching them. | Below: The AA machine-gun correctly positioned. |
Don't glue the rocket launcher turret. It should sit inside the turret well, where it can rotate freely to face the target. | Alternatively, you may choose to glue rare earth magnets into the recess in the hull and to the bottom of the turret. Magnets are a quick and secure way of fixing your turrets to the hulls, rather than just relying on gravity. | |
Rare Earth Magnets (XX105) are available in the online store... |
