I'll be joining the GB with another of the German Entwicklung tanks, this time an E-50 upgraded with a new turret, engine and running gear to make a what-if 1950's version, or a "missing link" between the E-50 and the Leopard tank etc.
Last year in the kitbash GB I took the turret from a Flakpanzer E-50 kit and put it onto a Panther tank (still need to finish weathering that build!). Now I'm going to use up the hull of the Flakpanzer along with some resin parts from Paper Panzer Productions (RIP)
Paper Panzer Productions Einheitsturm "1947"
Paper Panzer Productions GT103 gas turbine engine. I cut out the original Maybach engine deck and added the new resin one about 5 years ago in anticipation of this build. The E-50's Maybach deck then ended up on an E-100 after I bunched it and need a replacement
Lastly to give it an even more upgraded look I'll 3D print new suspension, wheels and tracks based on the B-PS 102 "Indian Panzer". I'll need to spend a few days on the computer designing the parts first tho...
