Very cool. My only understanding of printing for these tanks is to use a resilient medium/product. I've seen that some are effected by sunlight and temperatures. IF I do this I want it to be as solid for use outdoors in the environment and all conditions from summer heat to winter snow. I don't know if that complicates things, just let me know I am interested for sure. Shipping would be to the U.S. postal code 10579. Thank you so much for considering/offering this.

I have asked and he hasn’t designed any pziii he just re sizes the existing ones where possible and just leaves them where not. That’s not to say he won’t do any. Now if you wanted Sherman ones we have those

Thank you for asking.I guess I have to decide whether I leave it stock or choose this SOL unit as I haven't found another option-

Perhaps ask Andy at AHHQ if he can source spruces from Das Werk or one of the others he’s tight with that make a PzIII ?

I hadn't thought of that, thank you. I did check his site out because he offers SOL figures and thought on the off chance he might even offer the SOL bin but nope. I will ask them. Annnnd since it is Das Werk I'm also going to post up the question on Das Werks public group that I'm already on Facebook Groups. Very good suggestion Mr.Bix :thumbup:

A member there guided me to Hobby DNA-

To look for the Tumpeteer part. But alas none was found and searching for it was painful page by page. Sooooo nothing yet.

Ive had it on good authority that the Sol version is hollow and can have blemishes ( Thanks Mr Glover)
I'd really push to get comms to AHHQ and see how it goes.
Or, buy a Takom or Das Werk PzIII & use the detail bits where you can.
The rest can be used on a Stug (which you dont yet have - but you will) so nothing will go to waste !!
