Meng A7V Build

[Dan]

Tracks on! Took less than 5 minutes. I removed the sprocket, started at the idler and then put the track on the sprocket and mounted it to the hull.

[Dan]

Gun done, I’m not doing the interior so didn’t add the smaller gun parts.

[Dan]

MG08s are cleaned up. I bought Aber’s MG and 57mm gun set for this kit, but it is not needed at all in my opinion.

[Dan]

MG mounts have been mounted.

[Dan]

Shoe box has been assembled!

[Dan]

This thing is big.

[Luk_Schrijvers]

How big is it? Tiger tank big?

[Dan]

About 8 inches long.

[Dan]

The “turret” body is done.

[Dan]

Visors are on.

[Dan]

Roof details added.

[Dan]

“Turret” on the roof, not glued down.

[Dan]

Tow cable added, string is supplied but not used.

[Dan]

Turret glued to the roof. Roof is very thin so the clamps keep it all level.

[Dan]

Floor is in! Excitement!

[Dan]

Not glued.

[Dan]

Now glued. Excellent fit.

[Dan]

Left side details added. I had trouble getting the bottom rear and side to line up.

Your A7V is looking good! But the star so far is that LEGO glue-bottle holder!

[Dan]

Thanks! My son made that for me about 20 years ago.
