Armortek

Hi Phil
yes i noticed the pm you sent after i posted , sounds good , those racks keep getting better and better will look amazing with the rounds added later keep up the good work .
all the best ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,nick

Thanks Nick
I will be able to fit the Rack in soon but the 2 free standing end plates
will have to wait untill I can work out the length of the rounds.
Cheers
Phil

Rear Amunition Rack fitted into Turret

i like the ammo storage, looks good, a lot of work , but worth it, regards simon manning.

Thanks Simon
I took some extra photo's to show that it could still be seen through
the hatches,maybe even with the loader standing in his hatch,seeing as
it is a good size.
Be nice with some Amunition one day.
Cheers
Phil

So spacious in there. Looks great. Put some lighting in. It will look great with ammo stored.

Thanks John,
Yes I think there is one on or near the turret roof by the loaders smaller amo rack,
so I will put one in and wire it into the same swich as my front light.
The space is nice in the T34-85,not as much as your Tiger though
Cheers
Phil

HI Phil
looking very very nice, great job and nice pics as well ,you definatley need a light like john has said
all the best ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,nick

Thanks Nick
Yes I will deffinately be putting a light or lights in there.
Looking back at the photo's where I dangled the camera throuh the hatch so the flash was inside,
I should have made some wire guards for the Turret Air Vents,it would have looked good.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Phil, I will be making a wire guard and some other roof detail. Did they label everything like the germans.

Hi John,
I cant say that I have seen any more labels than on the usuals,like the Radio and in the drivers
compartment,from the interior photo's I have seen.
I think from the stories about the crews having to help out in the assembly factories to build
their Tanks,I think they were expected to know what all the bits did,or learn fast
Cheers
Phil

Awesome Phil!!!

Love the turret interior.

Having some German ammo quoted at a new source. Can draw these up if you like but I can tell you that for a small quantity it will not be inexpensive to produce. Not because of my cost, but just the CNC work.

T34/85 Ammo


best regards
Tim

Thanks Tim
Yes I can imagin it would be very expensive with the cnc machining to produce those.
That is a great photo you supplied and clearly shows the markings.
I ordered a set of 1/16 scale T34-85 rounds in resin from Hussar products via Airconnection in
Canada,so that I could scale the size up.
They would certainly look nice in my racks
Cheers
Phil

Hello Phil, I am still enjoying your super build of the T34. Just gets better and better.
