1/16 Panther G (Build)

Now I finished my Pz IV it's time to get started on the Pz V.

Picked up cheap 2nd hand Panther G some time ago and bought the taigen Panther hull from forgebeartanks.com

1/16 R/C PzKpfw I Video

Took my 3D printed Pz I out for a drive.

It didn't have enough power to turn on the grass but I was pleased that the tracks held up. This is the first time I've driven the printed tracks so hard and when the tracks did get snagged the tank cut out before the track broke.

Full build is HERE

1/16 KV-2 (Build)

Picked up a couple of KV-1's and decided to convert one into a KV2 (and I wanted a break from Panzer tracks). Managed to get to bulk of the parts designed and printed in a day-

1/16 IDF M50 (Build)


I've been making parts for a couple of guys who are building IDF M50/51's. I thought these tanks are based on the HVSS Shermans and as I have no spare Tam hulls I didn't think about making one. But then I came across this pic-



M50 with VVSS. So with some of my test/waste parts I set about building my own IDF tank-

1/16 Tiger 1

This is my first 1/16 tank (almost 10 years old). It's a heavily modified Heng Long, metal gears, wheels and tracks.  I beefed up the suspension to take the extra load. It was one of the early non S&S tanks with molded on tools. I tried to make it a kind of Berlin Tiger (ie. beat up and on its last legs.)

US 1/16 scale WWII era tank filler caps.

These are test prints I made for my Hybrid Firefly but they can be used on any  Heng Long, Mato and Tamiya M4 Sherman (variant).
