I have started up a Youtube channel which will show many of the parts fitted and also hopefully be of interest to anyone building Armortek vehicles. I hope you can have a look at videos and support channel by subscribing.










More coming soon.

Here are some parts available to order for the Panzer III and Panzer IV. There are two versions of the cupola covers depending on which armortek cupola you have. The first production Panzed III is different from later models produced by Armortek.

The turret hatches will require some cutting to fit the viewports and gunports. Easy with Drill/Dremmel and file.
All viewports with clear polycarbonate optics.

Beautiful work, John. It's nice to see such craftsmanship stepping in to augment these wonderful kits. I hope to buy a King Tiger set of rear mudguards from you later this year.

Continuing to add to my Early Tiger 1 model. In this video I add my early rear mudguards to the Tiger 1.

Just one set of Tiger 1 mudguards in stock at the moment front and rear and one set of King Tiger rear mudguards if anyone interested. Waiting on brass angle supply.

Sorry about the sound quality. I am using a new camera and not yet mastered the settings between microphone and camera. Should be better next time.

Looking forward to attending the Armortek open day. I will be bringing Tiger 212 along for a drive. It's been a long time since I had it working. I will also have some parts along if anyone wants to have a look. Working hard adding more details before I start on trip. I will be at the Tank Museum on Friday if anyone around.

This model has many of my parts added. There will be more added before the open day.
