Bullethead Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Makjager has said he's building the Aufklarer 38(t). Also, he says he MIGHT be able to get photos of other people's Flakpanzer 38(t), Casaba, and maybe even Nimrod. So on these, if you see one, snag it just in case he can't get the photos. I'm going to build the BT-5 first, then the T-26. Panzer Leader's got the BT-7 so mine will languish in the closet for some time. Good work, folks. We'll get all these damn things in the game yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diceman Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Panzer Leader I have a reasonably good Panther A if you're worried about duplicating effort. The decal glares a bit, but that can be fixed with a good paint program. http://diceman20762.tripod.com/outofthebox/id3.html I'll be submitting this as soon as I can reshoot the shots that didn't focus, along with my Tiger II, JS II early, Tiger I late, and PZIIIL. Here's what's on the bench: PZ38t that just needs painting. In the box: Ferdinand, Stug III G late, Panther F, T-35 (too bad it's not on the list), Jagdtiger, Puma, PZIVH, T34-76 '43, KV-1C, SU-76M, JS-III, T34/85, and Valentine III. I can produce a quality model in two weeks time, but which two? Any empty slots I can fill Kwazydog?

Panzer Leader Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 Diceman: Good lookin' Panther! I will be happy to set mine aside. My personal suggestion would be to build up that Ferdinand! I love Ferdinands. Is it the new Dragon model? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offtaskagain Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 I'm going to enter the Porsche KT i've already mentioned. A friend of mine will be entering an Elefant, Sturmtiger, Jagdtiger, Jagdpanther and a Henschel KT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason firemen use the axe as a symbol I'm leaving Dan to clean up the mess. He can do wonders with Photoshop You might want to try one of those 3-piece resin kits on the last page.

Kwazydog Posted January 26, 2002 Author Share Posted January 26, 2002 Heya Guys Hehe, Im having trouble keeping up with you guys...here are some more answers! Panzerleader, looking forward to the new models! 1/32 is definately better but 1/76 can still be of use to us if that is all is available. The Aufklarer btw is a neat little recon vehicle using the chassis of a Pz-38 and a 20mm turret similar to that you see of most German recon vehicles. Måkjager, thanks for the info, Ill pass it onto Chalres. No promises though as it looks like we are talking about less than 10 vehicles, hehe. Bullethead, thanks for posting the info! Yup, 1/76 will definately be a help as long as they are detailed nicely and the details are visible and clean. If you guys find photos of models you are thinking of getting that you want to run past me first, please feel free! Gordon, looking forward to the BA-6! Hehe, dont worry too much about the colour as it is easily fixable, as you of course know Panzer Leader, make sure you take some shots before you get to the white wash, as we have to get the vehicles in there first before we think about the winter version Also, I can white wash pretty easily in photoshop, if time permits us to do so. If time permits it would be great to see the Sdkfz 10/5 as I have a model complete for that one, but as of yet no textures. Also, we could really do with a nice puma as we have a series of vehicles based on that chassis! Bullethead/Makjager, textures for the Casaba and Nimrod would be great, as they are definately ones we have no textures for The Flakpazer would be great too, though it seems that most served in the west, so this one will be one of the last we do if we make it there. Diceman, thanks again, lokoing forward to your entries! Well we have some textures for most of those you mentioned, but it would be great have a nice texture for the Elefant and the T-34's (as there are so many versions as we dont have enough textures to cover them yet). Panzerwerfer42, thanks, looking forward to them ! Back to work! Dan [ 01-26-2002: Message edited by: KwazyDog ]</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace Posted January 26, 2002 Share Posted January 26, 2002 <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Panzer Leader: BTW, what is the Aufklarer?<hr></blockquote> Think Sdkfz 222 turret on the 38(t) chassis.

I guess that means the game won't be finished until (hopefully) the middle of april. Then add a couple of weeks to print the CDs and manual.

You don't stop doing other projects when this sort of thing crops up, you just have to dig deeper and grind it out in addition to all your other projects. Hmm. Wait a minute. I think I see a pattern here that might explain my lack of a real life and my lack of sleep. Time to re-evaluate. Guess I'll go to the Carribean for awhile.

Btw I think Alan (the polish or Russkie model company) has just released or is just about to a SdKfz 138 Ausf M Grille. So keep an eye out for that.

Panzer Leader Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 Updated List with "taken" models. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Russian T-44 T-26 * --------------------Bullethead BT-5 --------------------Bullethead BT-7 * --------------------Panzer Leader BT-8 BA-6 --------------------Gordon BA-6M T-60 T-70 SU-12 SU-57 ZIS-30 GAZ-4M ZIS-42 GAZ 64 GAZ 67 German H-39 Hotchkiss PzKw R35 ------------------Mace PzKw 35S ------------------Panzer Leader Flakpanzer 38(t) ------------Makjager (maybe) Aufklärer 38(t) ------------Makjager Hungarian Turan I * Turan I (w/armor skirt) Turan II * Turan II (w/armor skirt) Zrinyi * Zrinyi (w/armor skirt) Toldi I Toldi II Toldi III Nimrod -------------------Makjager(maybe) Csaba armored car --------Makjager(maybe) CV35 tankette Romanian R-1 Tankette * Renault R-35 Vanatorul de care R-35 TACAM R-2 TACAM T-60* Malaxa Carrier <hr></blockquote> Well, it looks like there is a long way to go on this list, but we are on the way. Incidentally Tamiya makes an old and easy Gaz-4 that you can prolly get for under 10 bucks if some one wants to take it. There are a bunch of other kits in the works, but I am keeping this post on the "Dangerously-close-to-become-unmodelled" topic... ANyone else want to share?

Adam T Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 Next week I send e-mail the pictures of my PzIVD and Opel Blitz models. Both of them is panzer gray. And here is two link about Hungarian AFVs, maybe they are useful. http://mailer.fsu.edu/~akirk/tanks/hun/Hungary.html http://www.activevr.com/afv/muzzle.html And please include Tiger I tanks for the Hungarian Armores Forces. They were extremely rare, but they were existed. They wore the standard german camouflage and markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullethead Posted January 27, 2002 Share Posted January 27, 2002 GREAT NEWS! Here's a message from Schrullenhaft I've reposted from the beta forum. He's basically got the whole list single-handedly. We owe him a LOT of beer. Salute Schrullenhaft! Note, however, that he says not to let this discourage anybody else from jumping in on any of these. I've bolded things that still ain't accounted for even with Schrullenhaft's outstanding effort. I encourage others to search for them. Schrullenhaft apparently knows were to find some of them so contact him if interested. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>I've modified BH's list here to add what I've ordered/found. All of the Cromwell's (UK), Ostmodels (Oz land) and FORT (Germany) I have currently on order and they should arrive within 2 weeks (hopefully - I haven't heard back from United Fun on the FORT's). They are mostly 1/76th scale and may be a very light on details or quite possibly not as accurate in their dimensions/details as some plastic kits or 1/35 versions. Some of the Hungarian AFV's are made by Botond Models/Resination (Turan, Toldi I, Csaba & Zrinyi). They're in 1/35th scale and very expensive (probably almost $150 for the Zrinyi II). I've found one distributor in the UK for them, but I have yet to hear back on availability or pricing. My skill as a modeller/painter is probably quite suspect. So if anyone cares to get any of the models I've 'claimed' here, they are more than welcome (especially if their a larger scale).
