Cheers Jim. Not 100% sure which forum completed self-propelled armoured Flak vehicles are supposed to be posted to. They span a few categories. Any advice gents?

I think we were informed that they fall under Completed Armored Vehicles.......operative word being "Armored". HTH

I normally start these posts with a disclaimer about me not being an armour builder, but let's just skip that bit and go straight to the wow, that made me stop and look. This is a very impressive model. I'm not quite sure how the vehicle identifies itself with tyres and tracks, but it does look amazing. Well done.

ADMIN, COULD YOU PLEASE RELOCATE THIS WHOLE POST TO ARMOURED VEHICLES UNDER CONSTRUCTION?

The reason why? This project continues to surprise, and not always in a good way! Unfortunately, the seperate 3D printed ammo trailer which was to fully complete the build took a tumble off the bench the week before last and I am currently trying to make it presentable. I was working on the hydraulic pipe and towing eye connection when it took an involuntary leap https://www.scale-models.co.uk/thre...n-trailer-3d-printed.39659/page-5#post-642898 I cleaned up the remnants but couldn’t look at the damage for a few days as I was so p****d at myself for being so clumsy

It was in a sorry state but remarkable the major components, although many now separated, seem to have remained mainly intact. I'm currently re-building the damaged areas and will have to decide whether it can be made to look presentable without resorting to covering certain damaged areas with tarps etc. Even though a fellow modeller kindly donated a lot of parts they had already printed themselves from the 3D file I still might have to resort to building the second 3D kit I have. Unfortunately, this doesn’t have the roof rack. We will see once I have made the repairs and make a decision.

The last image I took moments before its skydiving activities! You can see the little brass hook I was using to keep both vehicles connected. Removing this to test fit the hydraulic pipe was when calamity struck !
