Javlin Posted February 11, 2024 Author #31 Posted February 11, 2024 I figured a small update was at hand as you can see in the pic of the open bay the radiator hose had to get clipped for the cover to fit and then for the turret to fit I had to remove the top of the tran gear box.I think this will be the last of the full interior I build seeing once complete all you see is the skin.The build does give one the feel of how it was to some degree for the men that fought in tanks in general.The gun is just laying there I have to build the inner walls which hold the barrel before the lid of the turret is glued in play.

Javlin Posted February 20, 2024 Author #33 Posted February 20, 2024 She goes back in the box and now back to the Scharnhorst.The fit of the turret parts is quite frustrating after a week of effort gave up for now. Landlubber Mike, Egilman, Canute and 4 others 7
