Donald, roughly how many hours of build time to do the 1/16 Panzer IV?

I have no idea , I guess it depends on what you want to do with it and how detailed you want it.
For example I have some Panzer IV s coming up eventually. I didn’t use the Engins on them as 90% of them can’t be seen , the generator is under the radiator and can’t be seen at all.
I remember a couple of years ago some guys made a very detailed kit to replace the kit generator, I showed them what was visable in the engine compartment. Never heard from them again.

Speaking of radios, most Panzers would carry only two of those boxes, not three.
The third slot was for platoon leaders, company commanders etc. to fill.

#79 to 94 looks fantastic, but #94 is my favorite! It’s like its directly from Krupp sales literature! The slight sheen on the transmission shifter/pre-election knob and steering levels rocks!

Just discovered your build, def enjoyed it!
Thanks for the simple straight forward approach. I have a couple of Trumpeter’s T34’s, and following your build gives one the clarity and confidence to get started. So we’ll see… :wink:
Cheers

The track link, track link holder, ammo & ammo storage all look amazing! Armor wise am exclusively 1/35 but a 1/16 Panzer IV looks so very tempting!
