Hiya mate,
Its a great kit....the detail is excellent and it builds up really nicely...hope I can do it justice.

A wee update before bed...




Hi
Still in a few sub assemblies so had to balance it together for a dry fit. These engine and transmission will marry together in the last few steps....nearly there now.
Thanks for looking in

Morning Mr. Benson,

I have to say you are moving along at quite a pace building the engine. Nice work on the wiring and little tidbits.

The snow blower unit in the last pics is fantastic as winter is coming!!! Drive on Sir.............

Well that’s pretty much finished now Allen. A real gem to put together

Pretty nice engine detail from MiniArt...I mean you put it together pretty well too, Si.

Cheers,

Cracking job Si. Hope they do panzer engines, would be very popular me thinks!

Hi Michael,
I was surprised to see the wire to be honest. I suppose you could model it as just the engine/transmission if you wanted to.
There is a picture of the box at the top of this page.

There are a number of builds of the various Mniart interior kits featuring this engine on the Armourama site, some with very highly detailed engine work.

That is looking rather special Si. Very well done indeed.

Miniart do have a PzIV with interior on the cards so could we’ll see a separate engine/transmission set in the future!

Hi Si
That engine is looking rather special. Looks to have gone together with no problems. I do like the box art on the Miniart box - quite an acceptable reference for painting.

Morning Jim,
Yes I thought that was a clever point from Miniart. They do have a gallery on there website with completed models on that help with colour choices

Hi Si

Rye field are releasing a Pz 111 with full interior, very interested in that. Hopefully a StuG will follow!!

There you again, mentioning Stugs. Anyone would think you have an obsession with them.....

Si , truly a stunning build
Please don't excite Bob, you know what he's like.
Mind there's plenty of Tiger engines around at least a StuG would sell well .Bob would probably buy them all !

Oh yes, need to be rubbed down with a maybach manual

I remember building this engine and thinking 'that must be one helluva starter motor on top of the flywheel to turn over that beast'.
