I'll kick this month's competition off then Mick :thumbup: this is my Morris Quad c8 fat, it's a 3D printed body based on an heng long truck chassis, the limber is scratch built with bits from my spares box. It's been upgraded with metal gears and axel internals, it steers with a micro servo run from a cheap esc and has a sound unit fitted. It still needs the paint work and weathering finishing off and a big 25 pdr gun to tow around behind it :D

Built by me
Painted by me
Pics by me.

The build thread to date is kicking around on here somewhere to, just search Morris Quad :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.ImageImageImageImageImageImage

Fantastic, thanks Lee :clap:

I had a 72nd Airfix one of these, more years ago than I want to mention, and I may still have the I believe Dinky one in my loft, but mine had the guns lol.

An excellent adaptation of a heng long truck :clap:

Well I think I have submitted this before but hey second time lucky maybe ? Juckenburg resin cast Maus, RC'ed with Clark board and Heng Long KT running gears (tracks and sprockets), metal upgrades from MK Modellbau (barrel, hatches and scopes). Built by me but painted marvelously by dgsselkirk.

Wonderful, thanks Michael :clap:

Funny, only today I was wondering about the possibilities of adapting a king tiger chassis to do one of these or a tiger P :thumbup:

Okay, I'm in for this month. Gonna see if I can rack up another second place! :thumbup:

Here's my Jagdpanzer IV. It's a standard HL lower, with a Profiline resin conversion kit, some metal parts, and a lot of scratch built add on parts. It's running standard HL electronics, with a bit of reworking to get the barrel elevation to work. Many thanks to some of the members for helping me out with some of the hard to find parts! :wave:

Here's the eye candy...

Awesome, thanks Bill :clap:

I know most of us here are descendants from the enemy of the Jagdpanzer, but, there's no need to hide it from us ;)
