The Official Armortek Forum - World leader in one sixth scale metal kits

The turret's frame was constructed from the prepared K2 tank's turret structural materials, and the main gun was applied with pneumatic recoil.
The work video will be edited and shared on YouTube soon.

In Korea, the traditional holiday of Chuseok begins tomorrow.
I hope you all enjoy the rich autumn.

I drank soju yesterday according to Vince's advice, who knows soju, which is a drink enjoyed by ordinary Koreans.
My conversation partner was a cat lady, and the side dishes were beef bulgogi, roasted eggs, seasonal pollack with raw pollack, and cabbage kimchi and mustard kimchi.

The shape of the turret of the K2 tank has been completed.
It seems to be completed by wiring, working on details and painting the wires.

Electrical wiring is being carried out to drive the K2 tank using engine power and to use a generator using a brushless motor.
This K2 production work will be completed by November 20th.

In this K2 tank, two of the three heat exhaust fans at the back of the tank can be proportionally controlled by engine room temperature in order to maximize the electric energy of the generator using a brushless motor linked to the engine shaft.
When the engine is started, one out of three is always operated, and when the engine room temperature exceeds 60 degrees Celsius, fan 2 and fan 3 are operated sequentially.
If it goes below 60 degrees, the fan stops and the excess energy is stored in the battery.

The K2 tank is being worked on in detail by division.

In this work, power generation using engine power, various lights, and details were made on the upper part of the body.

The turret rear basket was constructed, motion tests were carried out, and detailed work was provided for completion.

The air-cooled heat sink applied to the desert type of K2 CPS (Commander's Primary Sight) was added, and the work of DMRS (Dynamic Muzzle Reference System) and IFF (Identification Friend or Foe) was carried out.
DMRS is a laser fired into the reflector at the end of the main gun, but in this K2 model, it was made of a turret searchlight.
K2 is undergoing detail work. In this photo, a smoke bomb and radar are constructed to be used for the turret's lower paint, handle, and softkill.

This week, the K2 tank also carried out various details on the turret.
All work is expected to be completed by next week.

The K2 tank is undergoing its final painting work, and after 3 days, all the work will be completed,
so I will move the work from the workshop to the house and meet with my chieftain.

Superb quality ! one and only dunkelgelb coloured K-2 Black panther! can't wait to see it soon!

Amazing how a little paint changes the look and brings it all together.
Can't wait to see a final video of it running around.
