hi, if it had been 1/6 i could of helped but 1/8 doesn't seem to have a lot as you've probably found out

Doll accessories or similar I guess might work.
Tough gig getting helmets and the like though.
When I go looking for tank stuff I take a small ruler , a tape measure and a calculator to scale things as I see them into 16th !

Thanks for that advice HERMAN BIX It sure is a tricky scale.......my wife's handy with materials and stuff so will be thinking hard on what to get up to. Good job ive got a long time to do it

Cheers Buddy

I guess regardless of the scale, you have to have a plan.
What you think you want, so when/if/where you see it, you can do the scale thing and go from there.
Just be glad you have a good problem to work with

I know of someone who can make you stowage and crew for it. https://www.shapeways.com/shops/panzerv ... and+up&s=0
Holden from shapeways, hit him up on his facebook page through the store and tell him what you're looking for. He can design it to your specification. Shapeways is kinda pricy in that big of a scale but if you got the money he can help
