Hey herbert you put the coax mg backwards lol not a biggie I'm a little ocd about that stuff, btw the wheel on the loaders side is so he can help with the traverse of the turret
I believe the reason there's no 'Porsche' turret with this kit is that it would have to have zimmerit on it. Up until I think autumn 1944 King Tigers were built with zimmerit applied, and all the 50 or so early production 'Porsche' turrets would have had it. So that's why they only put that option in the zimmerit kit.
The thing that is behind the engine is the overflow/ top off for the cooling/radiator and engine oil reservoir system. Forget which is which but I think the smaller cap right side is oil and the other is for coolant/water.
Well done and thanks Herbert and well done Rubicon. Could this be a sign of what we could expect in the future from Rubicon? With technology, detailing is becoming easier.Quite detailed for a gaming piece, but it would look great when blown up (as a terrain feature) if that is possible with a king tiger.
I think it is a sign of what's coming. I just received some of the Centurions and other stuff, and while they don't have the interiors, they're really nicely detailed like this.
Wow, look at you doing full interiors and... crew figures! Nice to know you're growing as a modeler. Nice build of a very fiddly subject. On a side note I haven't seen any videos of war monuments lately. Did you run out of easily accessible ones or have your health issues prevented you getting out and about? If the latter, please get better soon. Not wanting to be too nosy but I do consider you a long-distance friend and I do worry about my friends.
@@jeskorettkowski2464 So much optional details added, seems like a good scale for collecting and Rubicon has a nice range extras for their models at this scale.
Quality
He put the coax mg backwards
Woah, magnets included. Rubicon already makes some of, if not the, best gaming models, and now they're throwing in stuff like that. Nice.
It's very thoughtful of them!
With Herbert the painting will take a wheelley wheelly long time! Great vid Herbert.
Nice kit, very nice video. I hope it get's the attention it deserves - kit and video.
This was such a great build I will have it on my “ buy soon” list
Super excited to see what else they do with interiors. Great video and streams as always!
thanks herbert 😃

This is absolutely awesome
Don't you mean "wheely" awesome?
I am sorry for the mistake you have corrected me
But legit thanks dude
I loved this kit so much I bought both versions. Can't wait to get paint on them, but 55 infantry models come first.
I want to make a cutaway version if this. Great build vid!

That does make sense. I just want extra bits for the bits box. It's been demanding more. MORE!
Amazing kit!

Just want to say I literally just built this and had the same issue with the jack missing a tab.
What a beautiful, impressive and ultimately insignificant machine this was.
Nice looking kit. I really think you should try and appease the Paint God. Full interior and exterior paint job with at least the commander figure.
Fella, Rubicon owe you comission on the amount of their kits you sell me on haha!
Paint!
"would be weird if the buisiness end was inside"
some russian tanker looking at their burning wreck "VADIM! I found out what we are doing wrong!"
Yeah pretty pointless for you dice rollers. Just seems to add cost
Its cheaper than the alternative from warlord, so I don't complain
