Hello folks,

I'm wondering if anyone has tried throwing an existing aftermarket interior set into the new Academy PzIV H mid kit that came out earlier this year. I am building one up now and would like to leave the hatches open for an Italian Front build, but there's not much to work with in the kit.

Has anyone tried using an interior made for Tamiya or Dragon kits? If so, how's the fit?

Nick

There should be several options. The CMK sets are incredible. Tank workshop has the old panzer concepts interiors and there's several from vls. It should be too hard to represent through the hatch detail. The Academy kit looks like a good value.

Thanks Chris. The Academy kit builds up all right and has nice detail, but oddly enough for something so newly tooled has a ton of ejector marks in visible places...

I've used the CMK sets on a Tamiya build. It's a waste when you don't get to see the details added but at least you'll know it's there.
