Tiger 1 Engine Access Hatch Details

[Red Devils]

Hey guys,

Been looking around but have had no joy, I'm trying to find some pics of the underside of a Mid-Production Tiger 1 Engine access hatch/cover. I've got the Tamiya one sized for the HL upper hull but I would like to detail the underside for when the hatch is open. Also, if anyone has a pic of the actual opening, I would imagine that there was a lip that would have went around the opening on the hull for the hatch to rest on. Thanks in advance.

The underside of the engine deck is a tricky thing to pin down , but you should find something here - good luck !

The Tank Man did some work on opening engine hatch. He might be able to help.

Here's his build.
