It has become hard recently to obtain some parts like high detail tracks for Jagpanther, JP BB road wheels, ice cleat tracks for P-IV, some of the 3:1 motors etc.. MAny vendors have many parts OOS (out of stock)
So I have shifted to building many projects at once following the King Tiger build.
Pic below has the next bunch.
From back to front:
1) Nashorn...waiting on more track links to get everything ligned up, plastic Bandai hull
2) Jagdpanther..Basically Tamiya with Asiatam 3:1 gearboxes (very nice for half the price of Tammy)..waiting on roadwheels and tracks
3) Panzer III...Just got a set of 3:1 HL gearboxes (probably the best HL makes) from Tankzone (Thanks!)..metal hull asiatam..metal wheels/tracks..etc...Rebuild of old project as I needed the low profile Asitam 3:1 motors for the Nashorn
4) Stug IV on HL hull with HL standard metal gearboxes (tired of messing with motors and gearboxes. This will be the last project to be built as I already built a stug III (which was an awsome fun build ...Asitam hull/HL uppers) waiting on tracks. this is my second plastic hull build as it fits the upper structure nicely
5) SECRET BUILD: Tamiya P-IV Lower hull with Tammy motors (used due to low profile and direct fit) Many fun pieces to put together..but a big PITA to get the parts...hmmmm..what will the upper hull be???? Only Welsh Dragon and I know....waiting on parts
