Studio Scale A wing, finished at last!

Guy Cowen · 11-22-2009, 08:00 PM

Looking to ID parts for my next SS Probe droid, Im getting better at this & found the Quad, 25 pdr & some more Karl parts tonight but I'm stuck on these

Anybody got a clue?

Scott Graham · 11-22-2009, 08:14 PM

The top one is half of an air cleaner part that goes under the rear hull of a sherman tank. I don't know which kit it would be though.

At least it has all the visual cues of one...

swgeek · 11-23-2009, 12:45 AM

The top one is from Tamiya 1/35 M3 Grant, part #A6.
Might be on the Lee as well but I'm not sure.

Guy Cowen · 11-23-2009, 04:29 AM

Thanks guy's

Weazel1 · 11-23-2009, 08:36 AM

The bottom pic is the grenade launchers from the Tamiya 1/35 Sheridan kit.

Guy Cowen · 11-23-2009, 08:52 AM

Brilliant , any idea how many is in the kit? Thanks.

Any idea's on this?

ralphee · 11-23-2009, 10:57 AM

Tamiya Lang rings a bell Guy, but i dont think its 100%, hmm id say German armor for sure, but, ive been wrong before lol.

Confirmed kills on this prop.

Tamiya 312t Ferrari
Tamiya M16
Tamiya 88mm
Tamiya Churchill
Hasegawa Morser Karl
Tamiya Gepard

Im pretty sure there are some Leopold parts on the underside and 8rad in the rear bulkhead too.

bests.......lee

ralphee · 11-23-2009, 11:04 AM

Ah, not Lang, but Kampfwagen buddy, thats the plete part anyhoo!

moffeaton · 11-23-2009, 11:22 AM

Funny you post this pic Jason ! I was looking at the part we're missing on the rear of the TESB AT-ST leg and now that I see this pic, it looks like the part could be from the truck on which is the Gepard ? With the detail sanding down... Or similar part (or maybe the back of the part, I dunno ! :P). What do you think about that ?

Guy Cowen · 11-23-2009, 11:53 AM

Cheers Lee. Jason, I hope you managed to avoid earthquakes whilst you were out in Japan, I had 2 of the buggers this years. I usually find getting extremely drunk helps the old jet lag, and is good fun at the same time?

Not a chance buddy, your in now hehe. Hope the heads clearing up now J, and your getting your lefts and rights sorted lol.

Julien, i see what you mean, interesting point buddy, could well be a form of loco chassis rail?

3d-builder · 11-27-2009, 12:20 AM

Guy here are a two parts off the Morser

Bottom hull part.

This is a part Alan and I found it's the bottom
ramp on the lower hull. Ask Lee about the kit
all I know is it's from a city delivery truck!!

It's used on the slave I think as well? I remember
seeing the part when those guys were hunting down stuff,
so I asked Alan to check it for me....sure enough!

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 01:31 AM

Its a C600 Michael

and yep, that was one killer find. Ive got a couple, that will NEVER see the panel sidings used, so i told Guy when he comes over to snap one off me, ya'll know i suck at mailing

Ive made a few nice (only little) finds in the cockpit too Michael, so ill try photoshop those for you guys and shoot them over for when you guys get back to these monsters!

lee

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 02:16 AM

Forgive the crudeness of these guys, not long been in from work so thought id put a few possibles down as well as confirmed.
Hope this helps, so Guy, add the Tamiya Brabham BT46 and 88mm Gunflak to your list and ill try confirm some of the others when i get some of my kits out of mothballs lol.

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 02:17 AM

Oh BTW, thanks to Cesar for supplying and taking these wonderful pics, and thanks to Kurt for publishing them, there awesome!

lee

Guy Cowen · 11-27-2009, 04:25 AM

Cheers Lee, Michael, Its going to a greater good.

MonsieurTox · 11-27-2009, 08:25 AM

Hey Guy, here's what Ive got so far (Cesar's pics) :

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 11:32 AM

Bro, killer job man, but, its not Lang on the underside, its Kampfwagen buddy

lee

MonsieurTox · 11-27-2009, 12:13 PM

Thanks bro !

Well we were both wrong

, I found the correct kit :

It's from the Möbelwagen, the holes on the portside part are not matching the panzer IV while the Möbelwagen holes are a good match.
AFAIK (correct me if Im wrong), the Panzer IV was not use in any of the Star Wars models !

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 02:20 PM

Bro, thats a great save

Never have really looked at the Mobel, great eye!

lee

MonsieurTox · 11-27-2009, 03:06 PM

The Möbel is one of the best donor for the TESB and ROTJ stuff !

ralphee · 11-27-2009, 03:08 PM

Right on bro, good thing were here giving this kind of info to the masses, and the Japanese boards too
