I've jumped ahead in the instructions and made a start on the interior as I wanted to see how it all would look! Theres a few sink holes to fill put nothing too serious.

Just started work on Mengs new Achzarit so thought I'd post some pictures here.

Nice. I recently got one and it looks really nice. I'll be following this one to see how it comes out.

More interior done:
One of the seats;
Close up:
All the main parts aren't stuck in place so can be removed for painting. Overall assemble is very straight forward and theres only a tiny amount of flash on some parts.

Most of the interior is hidden when the top is fitted which is a real shame. I'm toying with the idea of cutting the top panel off so its removable

Nice work so far!Have you got either Achzarit books (Dr Mansherob's 'Wild and Cruel Cats' or Desert Eagle's recent one) Just scored one of these kits off ebay for a bargain £27 so thought it was rude NOT to get one!
Im trying to concentrate on one subject this year but I have this fascination with what the Israelis did with 'obsolete' or captured armour,and how radically different the end results usually were.....
Intrigued to see how this one's progressing

Yes, I think it wasn't easy to pack a powerful engine into the rear left corner, to cut the power train for the rear exit and to bring the power to the right sprocket.

Hi, yeah I have both books - they're excellent BTW
Progress has halted for the time being - life gets in the way too much sometimes
Should be back to building soon though

The interior parts come with the late version kit - I don't think they are available separately.
