1:35 Engine pipeline parts from Rye Field Model are parts of the pipework for the engine bay of the Tiger I. It is an accessory for a model, not a kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
An accessory set in 1:35 scale, part number RM-2007. It is not a kit of the tank, nor a separate engine, but a set of pipework parts for the engine bay. The manufacturer intends it for their own Tiger I kits with a fitted interior, which they list under the numbers RM-5003 and RM-5025. It makes sense where the engine bay stays open or where the hatches are taken off.
The engine bay of the Tiger I was full of plumbing: cooling hoses, fuel and oil pipes, clamps and sleeves ran in a tight space between the engine, the radiators and the fans. The crew reached them through the large hatch at the rear of the hull. On a built model with the hatches closed nobody will see any of this, but on models with an open rear it is precisely this place where the difference shows between a kit straight from the box and a worked-through piece.
The parts are small, so work with tweezers and over a dark surface so that you can see them. Before gluing, dry-fit them in place according to the kit instructions. Paint them before seating them in the hull, where a brush will not reach later: a primer coat, dark metal on the pipes, dark gray on the hoses and finally a light oil wash on the joints. Keep the coats thin, otherwise the relief of the sleeves disappears.
This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
