Minialand 3DP 1/6 R35

[Xiaoshan_Sailor]

Minialand has released some initial photos of his new Renault R35 light tank prototype work. Will be offered in 1/6 scale just like his recently released FT-17. No word yet on expected release date but expect mid-summer.

Great! In 1939, there were about 50 of them in Poland. Later, our brigade used the R-35 in France in 1940.

Minialand's R35 prototype work is progressing well.

Once the R35 base model is complete & uploaded to Cults, he'll begin work on a German variant, the 4.7 cm PaK(t) (Sfl.) auf Fgst.Pz.Kpfw.35 R 731. This will be offered as an option similar to how he did with the FT-17 octagon turret module with files specifically needed for the conversion.

Ok NOOOOOW you have my attention !!
Assume these STL's can be reduced for 16th scale without too much hassle ?

[Xiaoshan_Sailor]

It's beginning to look a bit more French.

Am planning to do the same for 1/10 so presume anything is possible. Files will be available sometime next month.

What until you see whats to come down the road once he finishes this & the VW Combi he's put on hold while completing the R35. Will be a fun year ahead for anyone interested in scale RC military vehicles.

1/6 model is made with specific bolts and bearings in mind. I'm also planning to scale it to 1/16 so we will see

[Xiaoshan_Sailor]

Yes, always account for every component when scaling up or down.

BTW, I was just given a preview on one exciting feature for this model that had not been shown before. Had to pick my jaw off the floor after seeing his CAD. Stay tuned!
