Ask Mark? ;D

Or try searching for the manufacturer, Big Tanks (from Russia, they also have a German supplier).
1:16 was my scale. Until 'Konan' came into my life... an Armortek 1:6 Tiger 1!
... Now followed by a Panther G, 'Gunther'!

I'm a happy man. 8)

I think you will struggle with 1/8 scale parts - not a particularly popular scale in the UK. I would try one of the German suppliers or alternatively 3D printed parts might be an option. Tracks are going to be difficult. You could get a caster to do a small run but it won't be cheap! Good luck I'd be interested to see a piccie of the model.
