Man, look at all that detail work and modifications! Can hardly wait to see it all painted and weathered. Thanks for posting the "pre-paint" photo.

Looks really great, Woz, and I know how busy you are so if you want to send it to Detroit I'd be more than happy to paint it and send it back. Job like that shouldn't take more than two or three years, tops. Bwahahahaha :haha: 8) :thumbup:

That looks fantastic Mr Woz :clap:

Is that part resin kit or all 3D printed?

I can see that the three piece transmission cover isn't a resin one, is that the same as your one on the shapeways site?

Everything that isn't Heng Long has been printed.

This was my second 3D print project that I started about six years ago (after my M7 Priest) but then I got distracted, Pz I, PZ II and so on. This year I've decided to finish all my shelved projects.

Mr woz. So I’m using your suspension bogies on an early a1 I’m working on at the moment. And although I was to tight to buy the wheels and upper it’s going quite well. My question here is will this lee and or a grant become available as kits? Though currently working with resin I’m not really a fan as the fit is usually poor. With the parts of yours I have used they are always a good fit needing very little re working if any at all
It’s your tank it’s what you make it
