Model is very simple, it consists of mere 4 resin cast stocks - complete hull, undercarriage bogies and machine-gun calibre .303". Quality cast stock is inconsistent - in one look there are very pretty represented details ( undercarriage, tracks, etc.), on second parties we can find, especially on lower part of hull, great quantity of short-run castings, sometimes of goodish dimensions, and in the inner parts of undercarriage we can find on the contrary a great pads of resin. For ablation of boils and short-run castings is regarding to their range perhaps best to seal up the whole bottom body with thin laminae of plastic, pads, however, will be necessity to remove by grinding. Further mistake on model is, that some parts ( mudguards, details of tracks ) they are too thin and there is threat of damaging them.

The greatest problem at construction of model ( which, however, is common for all resins ) is fact, that model totally lacks the interior of driver's compartment. This what's insignificant at tank, is however serious problem at LVT-1, into which crew compartment it can be a good view by 5 big windows. Here is offer of two options how to remove this inadequacies - "strong characters" they can compartment totally remove and make a new one from plastic laminae and in it create also details of interior ( by photo, however, rather poor ). But much simpler and elegant solution offers here to those, who wants to construct their Aligator in perhaps the most impressive version - as a vehicle engaged in tragic invasion into Betio island in Tarawa atoll. This vehicles had driver's compartment protected by additionally welded iron-clad plates, in which there was cuted out only small and narrow sights. This modification can be managed by even less experienced modeller and result will be absolutely convincing. There remains only to cover entrance door into compartment from transport room - this is possible to perform by imitation of canvas, which can be visible on photos of some vehicles throwed over compartment roof. The one who will decide for construction of this version, will have to give into front part of transport room two machine-gun calibre .5".
