This is hy I should not be around 3D software and a printer. I start making things that I have absolutely no space for.
Anyway, some fanciful Model T's based on some images I found on the web! Now that I have these I imagine I'll get into all sorts of trouble with other variants.

I'll also be redoing the Scout, LRDG, and Turkish versions just for kicks. Then the hard tops.

fair enough lol
I've stayed away from model T's for years now ,As they seem to be cursed.
I've made four, two were victim to Porch Pirate's in the US, the third was finally delivered and the company ceased trading (a pain but I was paid before hand.) The fourth met with a mould collapse during production.
If your still having fun fiddling around these idea's .These have a real Pulp and BoB appeal.

But that's a Citroen you silly goose! lol :P

I know coz I've just sent a 1/48 one to Australia ;D

Private commission or for one of the traders?

Very nice model, Of course that makes me look completely ignorant.
I assure you it's not a personal slight. I wander around in complete and blissful ignorance of virtually of every company's output this side of the pond.Let alone your side. I just make what I'm asked for, Or what I've an interest in.
There's little enough time to do the research I need for each project.( currently bouncing from field hands,and Cotton pickers to Civil war wagons,Dwarves, sci-fi cavalry, to WW2 home front. On top of that I've a display set of 4th century scale to re sew and re lace. Before the 28th of April. )
If I spent time looking at everything everyone made . I'd never get anything done.
I'm interested to here about your progress in switching to digital over Anolog. I picked up the basics a couple of years ago. However I've done begger all cad work since .As I've a back long of Anolog to the point I gave my printer to the kids school. I'm still Anolog to the point I've actually been on a refreshing course for flint knapping. ::)

More model Ts!
I managed to print and sculpt a few more.

There is a rail transport car version I think I will do, and another WW1 variant. Then on to the Armored cars!

These are fantastic 8) 8)

Cracking stuff.
If your going to do a rail version. As going to use scale compression to fit pre existing model railway track.Or do you have a particular scale in mind or existing products.
As a rail version tends to come into conflict with people's existing rail track they use for gaming.
Or are going down the old Anolog route of just proving a longer axle that can be cut down to fit an individuals existing track models ( Admittedly it's the one I used as it was simple)
Looking forward to your take on armoured cars. Looking at your previous work I'm hoping you'll do something more interesting than the bread and butter Western Front. The Italian Russian ,Australian, and Indian Armoured cars are really quite interesting As are the Also rans and private builds.
I speaking purely from selfish perspective. As These are area's I wish I'd sculpted rather than having to start with the bread and butter Rolls ,Austins ,
There's so many variations in these area's. That suit 3D rather than Anolog.
Either way I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Will these be available as stl files or hard models? You could sell them through Wargaming 3D.

Rail Version - As with the Trains I made for Company B lineup, the wheels will come in different widths. Most likely S scale as default, but versions for O, HI, etc. All I'd really need to do is print off a new set once the interior wheel measurements are set.
Next Model T's, theres the Scout version for WW1, Then the Hotchkiss 1908 for the Turks and Ottoman Guns cars of various makes.

These are great. I've been bust modding some ordinary vehicles into Pulp or BoB explorers wagons. I'll get photographing.
