                        This is partly Verlinden's interior, but it took quite a bit of scratchbuilding to bring it into correct specs.

                        ..with the engine installed...this is a separate kit, by the way...

                         

                        I cut the roof out and opened up all the hatches to show it off...this is a command version, from DML.

                        This model was on the cover and the article in two parts, ran in Finescale Modeler, December 2008/January 2009, and is still available in back issues!

                        Here's a link to the interior build to help you a bit more...

                        The Verlinden stuff is still available--try eBay if you can't find it in stores! Big Smile [:D]

                        Off hand I can't name any, but you might try doing a search at any of the on-line websites such as Greatmodels.

                        Does anybody make any aftermarket stuff for the Tamiya Hetzer? I'm wondering about any interior or engine compartment detail sets. I know you wouldn't be able to see much but if you made the top removable you could display your interior work.
