3d printed semovente 75/18 M40

Post by Tank79 »

Hi guys. It’s my pleasure to introduce this tank printed and developed by my friend Stefano aka Gullivers’ factory. It’s a perfect replica of the original version of the Italian tank. Every single measure and details are taken from the real tanks that rest in Italian museums.
It is in 1/16 scale and it is provided with 2 motor and 3 servos for the cannon movements. The lower hull is metal and brass soldered. The rest is made in sinterized nylon (very hard).

Here some pictures:

Very cool. Italian tanks are very under represented in the hobby.

This is a fantastic build and unique subject. I reached out to Stefano on FB after seeing your earlier posts there but sadly, the price is above my pay grade. Am certainly not disparaging what he's asking since it appears to be a work of art but its geared towards the serious collector. Isn't he also working on a 1/6 version? :thumbup:

Finally a good quality Semovente!

I think this is great! I agree with Chuck- I recall Stefano was/is working on a 1/6 version also.. 1/6 a must have for me and I'd walk a mile,
perhaps 2 for a 1/10 scale version...

Recommend he follow Warprint's example & offer the option of either kit as well 3DP files at a respectable price like Tomas does. A semi-kit with metal hull could be another option. That way it will broaden Stefano's market to those who prefer the DIY approach by printing their own.
