Sherman Firefly VC

The Shapeways parts I used are my own designs. I've just put these up on my shop, so this is available here -

Hi Niall,

Many Thanks for your reply - these look excellent. I'll be ordering a set shortly. Do you do other parts for a 16th scale Firefly or is this it?

Cheers,

Chris

I've done a Sherman 1 engine cover and glassis plate aerial mount, but have not finalised them for uploading to Shapeways. I'll upload a screenshot of the CAD file tomorrow.

I can do extra castings of the packs and helmets.

Excellent work Niall. I'll be ordering the first set shortly. Thanks for your replies.

Cheers,

Shapeways have a fixed price on shipping, so waiting for the second one would save money.

Second set now uploaded -

After some consideration I have asked Niall to rebuild this vehicle to a 1C - it just struck me that if I do show it off - as much I think it would be okay to the eye and passing gloance - it would probably be better this way.

And good chap that he is - he has started the work and hopefully we'll have some piccies soon.

Looks Good, nice work.

Forgot to add -

Got to wait for Shapeways to print the mantlet , exhaust nozzles and air filters.
