Thanks mate.

To be honest, scratch building a vehicle that is already available in another format seems like a bit of a waste of time, resources and effort.  My FDM printer is far from perfect and perhaps, one day, I will splash out on a resin printer but, until then, it will do for quick turn-around jobs. Sacrilege?

Hi Mod's!

25040 guests today.

I'm pretty sure we're being hammered by AI bots, again.

Keep getting "508: Resource Limit Reached" & "Connection Issues - Site Busy" type messages.

Bravo 
That really works well. Using the avail renders and what you have done replacing obvious bits that would be less than acceptable from a print.

Ok a maybe I am a bit sorry that I did not see an Uber scratch build emerging from an Airfix stalwart running gear however what we have looks just terrific

Looks pretty good for an FDM print Did you print it in several parts and put it together?

Thanks mate.   

It was printed in only 9 parts: the hull main body, 6 x wheels, turret and turret bustle.  Wheels definitely work better than tracks on a FDM printer…

Thought this might amuse you;

From over on What If Modellers;

Yup, the Japanese Type 87 APC does indeed look a little like some illegitimate love child of the Saladin and with the Scimitar turret…
