Re: 1/16 trumpeter t-34
working front hatch mainly as the new wsn tanks have a sealed hatch
i was thinking about backdateing a wsn t-34/85 to the earlier t-34/76 using the trumpeter turret parts,not sure how feasable this is thogh

Re: 1/16 trumpeter t-34
the wsn t-34 is a copy / made at the same time as the trumpeter kit ... the early turret fits the turret ring ...if i remember right a chap in germany did the conversion .... and look ok ..... the idea was there the modelling was not ....
i dont know what ..but i thought the drivers hatch on the wsn t-34 was moveable ?? could be wrong ... it may be worth tapping imperial models in germany as steve may be able to supply the drivers hatch for an su-85/100 kit ?? hes done parts of the kits befour ..if you ask .. nice ....

Re: 1/16 trumpeter t-34
Possibly you could use the string cutting method and cut out the hatches, add hinges?

Aleardy tried this to no avail. I believe you have no chance obtaining separate sprues from Trumpeter. 

Re: 1/16 trumpeter t-34
Ebay or online stores for spares is all I can think of. I have the static T34 76, if it has any spare parts i'll drop you a line.
