Title: My 1:56th Hetzer

OK, after many, many, many "he's adding the finishing touches to it" from Simon at BAM, I can finally reveal some pictures of it, before it goes off to the BAMwerke foundries.

It will (unless Si changes things) come in 7 parts- the hull, two track units and the gun. The three hatches make the other three parts.
I've included a BAM Panzercommander to show the scale- I cannot stress how small the vehicle is, even in real life- and it's even tinier as a model.

Now I'll be packing it and mailing it to Si either tomorrow or Tuesday...

That's grand  8)  8)  8)
You're right of course, it's a very small vehicle, and a useful one too apparently. And it's great to have one in this scale.  8)  :love:

Great work Olaf :)

This is a beautiful looking vehicle that was a thorn to the Allies.

It will be nice to see some lovely crew to go with this AFV. 8)

Best Wishes.

Yup, I'm sure Paul will come up with some corking crew to go with it.
