Building the Tristar Panzer IV D Tauchpanzer |

I will be building in this Blog the very nice Tristar Panzer IV Ausf. D "Tauch". I will be using Saul Garcia's review found here: http://www.track-link.net/reviews/k1757 I will use this review as my guide and I will be referring to it as I build if needed. The instructions are much easier to follow and read than the DML Panzer IV Ausf. E kit which are very confusing.
My plan is to build the kit as a Ausf. D, not the Tauchanzer version. I will build the kit in the 15 steps the instructions show. I will show a scan of the assembly step from the instructions and a photograph of the assembled parts for that step. |

| Some of the small but not all the pieces in the kit like bolts and other small parts are on small sprue trees just like you would find in a Model Kasten track set (inset photo), you cut them off and glue in place. As I looked at this photo I noticed I attached C-6 upside down but was able to correct it with no problems. |
