Step 1. Begin assembly of the Ferdinand by attaching left-side tracks to the hull.	Step 2. Next attach the right-side tracks to the hull.	Below: The tracks in place.

Step 3. Next, attach gun barrel to the upper hull section. Note that the mantlet makes an unside down T in the correct position.

Step 4. Next place the square hatch into the sqaure slot.	Step 5a. Now you can place the closed comanders hatch in place. Skip this step if you wish to have a tank comander with the hatch open.	Step 5b. Cut the comanders round hatch in half and glue the two sperate peices onto the hull then pace the commander of your choice in the open tank hatch.
