My 1/16th Panzer III

[pzrwest]

I'm in the process of building a pzIII in 1/16th scale from scratch. I had molded the running gear(sprockets, idlers, return rollers, road wheels, track links, and accessories) from a 1/16th scale StugIII that was the prototype for the Verlinden's StugIII that Louis Pruneau did for them. I'll take some pics of the progress so far and post them, All the hatches work with locking levers on the hatches. Basic interior inside the crew compartment and turret along with lighting. Please excuse the mess on the work table ...lol

Up-date on My PzIII

Well my Panzer III J is finished. Here are the pics of the finished tank. I chose to asign it to the 3rd Panzer, 2nd Company, 3rd Squadron, Tank1. All hatches(except engine compartment) are functioning with working locking handles, interior is complete both hull and turret, lighting in both turret and hull. Turret lighting battery is concealed in the storage bin along with the switch. The hull lighting battery is hidden under the left rear back corner louver along with the switch. It uses the lights found in digial watches and "N" size batteries.
