Great job on the last one. The extra armor and the tow rope are just perfect.

Where did you get the concrete apron? did you make it yourself?

Hello Frank,
there was a modeling magazine online a few years ago. You could download the field and print it out. That could have been 10 years ago. I have another Field. With zebra stripes and drain cover.

The next Canadian cat. I found the numbers on the tower interesting. Why? For training? For the repair? As a demonstrator? I liked that, so I wanted to show mine that way too.

Last weekend I do a wheel tree forest

Hello friends,

The next one. Marksman. Apparently it was also tested on Leopard 1. Modelmix Italeri/ Takom.

Was there any tank the Marksman turret wasn't fitted to

Any plans to make a Matador SPAAG?

I don't believe a M60 was ever tested.

The next model, although very old
I built this model in 1993. I saw this picture of the project in a MaK brochure. I hadn't noticed that the rear was longer, similar to the Gepard. I only noticed this a few years later and didn't like it. Now I had revised it in November.

And Now:

The VT 1-2 is also finished. He doesn't really belong to the Leopard 1 family. As with the Kpz 70, I made the suspension movable here too.

Hello friends.
I'd like to show off my collection here. You've already seen many Leopard 1s here. Here are all of them together. The first Leopard 1 was handed over to the Bundeswehr on September 9, 1965. My early models, in particular, are almost 50 years old. They're not exactly beautiful anymore, but I'm still showing off my youthful missteps here. So, the older they are, the worse they are. The texts are in German, as they were included with the models at shows.
