Does anyone do a Marder APC/IFV in 1/56?

Well Bellardian here is my take on a fictional APC based on the E50.



It is an E50 with a Puma turret. I placed a ramp on the rear and moved the exhausts to the sides to make it more like a APC.





I mashed this up but I can print it.

 An interesting stab at the concept (rather like a Shutzenpanzer HS.30) - but there is an issue - you can't have the engine & the passenger exit at the back - the engine would have to be moved to the front, along with the air intakes, engine access etc.
 Perhaps the HS.30 would be a better starting position for a '46 APC, the hull has the necessary depth absent in a tank hull for passengers - slapping E-50 running gear on it might work (I'm sure I've seen someones render, I'll have a look).

Here is one of the Kitech/Zhengdefu  Marders without the side skirts.
I had robbed some parts from the kit for something else and thrown the rest in the parts box. I decided to build it a couple of years later and dress it up a tiny bit. The overall kits detail isn't bad and the side skirts would hide most of the simplified running gear.
The figure is from Empress Miniatures and should give you a decent idea of the size of the vehicle compared to their figures.

 Cheers Schriv, the plastic kit is likely to be far more amenable to kitbashing than any solid casting, so if it's necessary to shorten/narrow it a little it won't be such a task. The detailing will have to be changed a little to 40's it up, but as long as I can jam the tracks on without them looking ridiculous I'll be happy (much like this guys 1/35 version).

PM sent, finally found the model!

With figures based up that Marder doesn't look as it would be  massively overscale.
