Thanks Zhapod and thank you for interesting info
I'm in a period of moving to new apartment and this consumes all my free time.
But i had a little break in between, so a there is a progress with Panzer I.
Main transmission mechanism.
A few sub builds, that parted to more sub builds. 
Steering clutches and brakes
Assembled each part separately and then connected together. Numbers on the side guided how to connect
Errors:
none
Hi all!
I managed to find some time in between for the model.
So next in main compartment are supportings for drive shaft cover and pedal rod
Then set of signal flags and some tube for... maybe rocket or something. Unfortunately, i wasn't able to find any drawings/pictures of interior with explanations, so it will be all guesses
Errors:
Part 116 on drawings page shows to make 5 wire parts, but you need only 4, for flag rods.
In this stage i also want to notice, that there are a lot of little mistakes in drawings, like overlapping isometrical view or like in drawing above that shows flags set and you can notice that all the pointers are offset
Little weird after Sherman 
Thanks Zaphod
I'm sorry for late update.
Suddenly, there is some other major project in my life, that i need to route my free time to, so progress on Panzer I slowed down.
But i managed to glued rest of rivets in fight compartment, though this was pain in the @ss. 0.6 rivets easily delaminate and hard to work with.
The method i choose was: paint whole strip->cut->glue.
After that i added rails for compartment floor and some crates of ammunition
That's all for now... and i don't know when there will be next update, but please be patient and stay tuned
Errors:
None
Spent some time to finish glue all bolts in engine compartment and then came the time to put engine in!
Prepared some more details: two fuel filters, one unknown small tank and some strengthening bars.
To place engine and other parts easily, you need to do steps in right order.
First of all fuel filters
Then the engine, that attaches to firewall and seats on two floor mounts
(In retrospect, i think it was unnecessary to cut out the hole in firewall)
Finally all the bars and two hoses from air intakes to air filters.
Engine compartment is finished, except exhaust pipes, that will be attached in later stage
Errors:
Confusing part 95 - strip that holds little tank and confusing drawings how to attach it. Sorted out by improvising.
Though this model was printed with double side color where needed, some parts are luck of it, like parts 96,97,98. Painted myself.
Part 99 a little bit short in length. Painted white glue mark and glued on remained edge.
Repetitions in this model are insane! But you deal with it great!
Thanks Zaphod
Yep, meeting it for first time
Additional parts for the engine
Power unit and engine mounts
Now i got exact position of engine mounts on the floor
Air filters with mounts
Tubes from air filter to cylinder were maid from wire with isolation
Errors:
Tube pattern number confused with other tube pattern.
By 251l, 251 they meant 88l, 88p. And vice versa 88.
In addition this pattern was wrong - cylinders on both sides are asymmetrical and there is no chance you can use same pattern for both. Also, connections to cylinders must be vertical and not horizontal, as shown
Continue with engine cylinders
Added spark plugs from scratch
Also tried to work with 0.6 rivets.... to small.
I'm still choosing the order between paint, cut and glue.
Whole tank has more than 500 rivets. I hope i can keep up with that
Cylinders assembled on engine block
Pay attention that both sides are asymmetrical
Errors:
None
Started to assemble engine - air-cooled 4-cylinder Krupp M305.
I think something similar was in Krupp Protze track.
Engine block
Air fan and oil pan
Assembled together
Errors:
Part 57 to short. This is an axel on which the fan sits. Drawing given is to short and i just made it longer, so it would insert into engine block and centre everything
Starting to fill engine compartment.
Fuel tanks, air filter tubes' rings and engine mounts
I didn't glue engine mounts in place. The reason is that there isn't any drawing that's show how to glue them. So i will wait for assembled engine to figure it out. I have a guess, though
Errors:
None
Tension bars. Two in main hull and one in engine compartment
I bent long small diameter tubes with a help of wet paint brush.
Just go over the detail with it and bent on suitable road. This way it has
less cracks.
Just to mention - designer gives the option to make this bars from wire
Though i assembled power structure right and inner skin inserted exactly, for my surprise two of three bars where too short 
Pay attention that engine compartment bar lies on a side. It is not clear from drawings
Errors:
Part 37 to short. Extended it with additional 0.5 mm patch on part 36
Part 40-41 is to short. Extended it with additional 0.5 mm patch on part 39
Parts 36, 39 seem like must be glued on 1 mm cardboard and not 0.5 as signed. Edge strip is wider that the part.
Thanks Zaphod
After little vacation, back to the work.
Firewall and some panels.
Firewall consists of wall itself and intermediate gear case
Glued in place. Didn't attach handles on doors for easy assembling.
Will put them in next step
Decided to picture on blue background, because on this one you true color doesn't distorted
I see that by now there are some little issues here and there, so i will start error report list from now on
Errors:
part 12 wrong side, left must be right and right must be left
part 27 to short, or gluing spot is to long
Hello Snake
Was machst du mit den Zeigestab???
Hello Krach.
This pointer is good for curving tubes with different diameters, due to telescopic structure of it.
Naturally next came interior skin.
Aligned perfectly by lines, so no mistake in frame assembling.
Only issue was with parts K6 - it was wrong shape and didn't attached
properly at front. I adjusted it and aligned inner skin part 6 accordingly and then glued to frame
Started unusually by the numbers and instruction and not with tracks.
They are simple, just three parts for each link, so i don't think i will stuck on them in later stage.
So first of all power frame of hull.
If you want that interior and exterior skin will align perfectly, you need to
assemble frame very carefully and accurately. And this starts from gluing it on right cardboard 0.5 and cutting it exactly by lines.
Some parts need to be cut with angle.
First joint parts K1 and K2 and then by the order.
I skipped part K6, because its curvature popped out from frame curve at front and i decided to glue it later with interior skin.
Hi to all.
I decided to get back to my project to build 6 main german Panzers of WWII, from I to IV. Already completed II from Halinski and III from GPM and waited for decent Pzkpfw I.
I have Ausf. F from WAK, but this modification was not mainstream and only a few were produced. Ausf. A were some simple and old models.
But Orlik published 2014 issue with new design and full interior and that what i decided to build.
Pzkpfw I was first tank in new line of armored warfare concept. They were super light and had only machine guns, but suited well for supporting infantry.
You can read all the info about the real tank here
This model by Orlik is well designed and has a full interior and interesting detailed suspension. So this a soft landing after Sherman.
Tank is tiny
About the book - some parts printed double sided and it's a plus! Designer gave details for supporting structure to build tank dome with right angles and also alignment rack for suspension angles.
Model detailed on a decent level, not Sherman but ok (told you i will always compare now :))
Tracks will be made from book. I checked laser cut kit, but it is simple and not worth to add.
Will use same tools as before.
Still have my watercolor paints for any shade, but also ordered Tamiya Acrylic XF-59 Desert Yellow paint for exterior.
Part III
Three and a half years of work
Most detailed and amazing model i built in armor!
Part I
So... this model is all about the rivets
Just kidding. Your dedication to small details is amazing!
Amazing detail and fine craftsmanship!
So, down to details, amazing work!
Good decision to start with trucks
Good luck with this build.
I have one copy in my stash and they are hard to find now.
Built this back in days from scans and want to build again from original book in the future, to complete Panzers lineup.
By now this is the only model with full interior...
I'm so glad that you started new model in armor. And this is a very interesting and unusual one.
I follow your channel on YouTube and enjoy every project you build.
Here is no exception - thorough, clean and precise build.
Will follow with interest.
Viel Glück, Jürgen!
Servus Andi!
Eine kleine Aufmunterung zwischendurch ... HOPP, HOPP, HOPP ... nicht vergessen, aufgegeben wird nur ein Brief.
Manchmal braucht es einfach einen kleinen Ansporn - ich weiß wovon ich rede.
+1
David, UK forum went down. All other places you posted there, including this one, are without pictures.
Is it fatal?
Or you can restore?
Johnny, you're back!!!
Thanks for updating.
Yes' I've started with hull, to feel the paper and to see how it's assembling.
Now I turned to tracks, as you suggested.
Your building report is very very helpful. Thank you for describing it so in details!
Keep up the excellent work!

Display MoreHi Igor,
I like to pass you the comments of a friend, who is a resin modell builder, to whom I showed your Pictures:

beim Betrachten der Bilder blieb mir mitunter glatt die Spucke weg - ich mag es immer noch kaum glauben, dass eine derartige Perfektion/Detailtreue mit Kartonmaterial überhaupt möglich ist - fantastisch!!! Die Authentitzität mutet jedenfalls als unübertreffbar an! Ich glaube, das ist mit Plastik-Modellen nicht zu übertreffen?! Wie lange der da wohl dran gearbeitet hat?!

Great Job!
Best regards

Thanks Matthias
It's trully amazing what cna be build from only paper
And don't tell him how much time it take 
And if you do, then in standart couple hours a day time, i think it would take no more then few month, max half a year
Hi romanmodels
I've started to build this amazing model myself
Your build thread is very informative and helpful.
Especially I like your method for track assemblig. I think i'll be using it too
Did you continue the build from February?
A little more photos
Photos continue...
Display MoreHello Igorm
once more: A great job !
How about a Mathilda to match the Panzer III ?
Zaphod
Thanks Zaphod. Maybe in the future..
Well, it's done!
Despite difficult period that included hard studies for M.B.A, i finished the model... Took only two and a half years
I've enjoyed every moment I assembled it and I want to thank everyone who watched my thread all this time
Final photos are here. Enjoy!
Attached links strip to the front, water canister to the left, towing cable to the rear and most important - bucket! To the bottom...
The model is finished, but there are left some more canisters, helmets and few boxes. I'll assemble them later and will do final photo session
Final stage!
Had a lot of trouble with doors axes, but it was my choice to make them movable. And eventually I did
Attached turret floor and socked floor supports with super glue for strength.
Assembled rear turret box and attached it to the turret
I was in luck it doesn't touch motor compartment doors
Turret finished!
Barrel assembled
Inside was painted with black
I also inserted some weight inside, to balance it on horizontal axes
You can move it up and down
Hexxxer76, Kentucky - Vielen dank
Work continues..
Display MoreHi Igor,
Very nice and clean build - congratulations
I had the same idea building the complete German line of WWII - and guess I'm a bit more advanced
Already built Pz1 to Maus
Enjoy your PzIII
Cheers
Peter
Well... You won!
Thank for the kind words. Sadly, second degree studies took all my time and I didn't progress much for past year. But its over now and I'm back to business! 
The work continues with turret assembling.
Joining outer skin and base of a turret included a lot of measuring and cutting, but eventually parts connected
You need to pay attention gluing visors with two black holes up and also to check that turret ring enters freely but not too much into the frame hole
The base of a barrel sits on axis and turns up and down
Ich bin wieder da
Exhaust system is assembled
Also finished signal lights and front machine gun
Everything is put in its place
Spare wheels holders are made from scratch
