I had it all built, just waiting for paint. Then I got the bug to do an interior. Had an extra Tiger II interior kit on shelf. I used the Tiger interior as reference for the E-100 interior. Iam waiting for another Tr E-100 kit to come in, for the upper hull. The new lower will be for another one.. Comments welcome

Wow, this is very, very impressive!!! One advice, if you go to this length, also get the Aber upgrade for the E-100. It will allow you to detail the hatches and tool clamps and stuff. That would put the cherry on the cake!

Is it a 20 or 30mm coax you have there?

Again, superb model and that interior is craaaaazzzy!!!!

Very cool !! Always glad to see another E-100 . Your additions to the kit are awesome. I like the coax gun. What size is the main gun? Looks more like a 150 or 175. Greta build. Don M.

Nice work on the add-ons and scratch building. What type of scheme do you have planned for it since it's a "what if"?

WOW!! It's huge! You'll need to get a big shelf to display that sucker...looking great so far! Like how you've done the interior, nice touch!

Thanks for sharing, keep at it. Cheers -

Thanks for the comments.. The main gun is a long barrel 128. Basically the same as used in Emil. Iam thinking of using the Armourscale barrel, but without the mussel break. The coaxial is a 37 mm Mk 103 auto cannon (scratch built. I don’t like using photo etch if I can help it. Iam thinking of just a red primer for a new tank going to the test ground, being transported by rail. I have to scratch build a supper heavy flat car to haul this thing.

Lots of great additions to this beast. I can't wait to see the finished model.

I like the Coax gun you built.

Great work!

Hey Guy, I love doing interiors and scratch building. You can get a interior kit for just about any AFV out there. With the E-100 you will use basically a Tiger II interior kit as a pattern. The engine bulkhead may be the same but who knows, The transmission was to be the same. Hull width dimensions wear to be the same as the Tiger II for rail travel. So with that it is easy, no torsion bars to deal with either. Iam just doing what can be seen through the hatches anyway.

Here is a picture of an DML/New-Connection Jage E-100 I did some time back. I just scraped the lower hull in faver of the Trumpeter kit.

WOW!!! What a monster. Sorry I couldn't see the other pictures, but the gun on this one makes my E100 look like a popgun. Nice job.

Hey RedRaider
The pictures got moved. I made up a couple new albums on photobucket and moved stuff around. I reuploaded the pictures.
The gun on this one is only a 150mm.

Hey Guys

I finely got around to taking more pictures of my E-100 build. Most of the construction on the interior is finished. Just a lot of add on stuff. Ammo bags for the bow machinegun, and other personal equipment. Then it well be ready to paint.
Comments Please

Great effort so far mate, very impressive with the interior and all.

Just quickly about the Jage E-100, did you scratch build the superstructure?

Wow, man--just simply amazing! Very inventive and imaginative in scope--it really looks tremendous!

This will certainly be worthy of a write-up in some periodical, or better yet, here on Armorama!

Why not do a feature article on it after you're finished?

Again, amazing work!

He Guys
I finely got the track I have been waiting for. They were specially made for me. I made the master from the kit spare track links, and sent them to Terry Barrow. He is part-owner of Project Partners. They have a 3D printer and he does some fine work. The track is completely workable. It is made in a type of special plastic, it is a little brittle. But works well.
Here is a comparison of the stock track and the battle track. He made both of them.
If anyone would like a set of workable track for their DML or Trumpeter E-100 you can contact Terry Barrow.
