Careful with the previous links to this company - the old domains are dead or serving malware.

https://www.w-modelling.com/1-43-scale should show their 1/35 scale kits. They're located in Georgia (the country).

Thanks for the update Frank.  I will edit OP with the new link.

New Model Kit News/Reviews / Slypi's Details

« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on January 09, 2026, 06:35:30 AM »

Slypi's Details located in Balaton, Hungary

Has a web page at this link: https://www.balatonmodellshop.co.uk/Slypis-Details

What caught my eye was this cousin to Kill Dozer Multi-Media Resin and Metal Kit that will be available for consumption in 2026

Click on image below for any further details at ScaleMates > Slypi's Details (SD104) 1:35th scale - IDF ACE 349 Armoured Caterpillar Excavator

Looks menacing enough on the box art.

I hope the two knees heal quickly!

Thanks mate.  Yes, full cybernetics - now we’re talking!

Typical MoD/DoD/etc. behaviour - Oh, we broke you serving your country? Well, just be proud & carry on in your next life!

I don't have an honest excuse, like a mangled knee*, but I haven't been near my modelling desk for 2 months & it's sending me around the bend!

Heal soon & get back at it!

Thanks mate! Yup, god bless the MoD…

Good luck with the healing process.  Have you been fitted out with crutches or a cane (aka (sympathy stick")? 
Hopefully the pain medication will not run out before the pain.

Thanks.  Yes, crutches have been provided and they certainly help.  Unfortunately, and somewhat ironically, my biggest problem currently is not the knee that was operated on - it is mending as advertised and the new joint is strong and robust - no, my issue is with my duff right knee which, having to take on the heavy lifting, has given up the ghost.  So I now have two swollen knees, one which is getting better and one which is f#£@*d and needs to be operated on.  The meds certainly help and I am staying positive.  It’s still very early days and much rest and recuperation is the order of the day!

Nice, always wondered what an M10 with a normal Sherman turret would look like.

Could be another build that gets wildly out of control or ditched if too many real world facts collide with a quick Whiffer vision.

Ah, the joys of whiffery! 

I don’t mean to be a Debbie downer. I think you have a good start here. It’s your project, build it your way!
