Hey Sergio did you get the Entex part I sent. Also What is your plan for the underside of the head? I don't recall any good reference photos for that. A good opportunity to get creative.

*update* I was wrong on recommending the thigh part. It can be used as a cheap stand-in, but new discoveries have been made (not by me) that makes this old/outdated info.

I did find the Mobelwagen shields a while back and the Lotus mkIII parts on the front chassis. Jason confirmed those were right on a Nerf Herder's livestream recently after new reference surfaced

Nice build Sergio. I think the B23 under carriage from the 88mm is the mystery part on the thigh. It's cut from the wider side of the eyelet, leaving a "U" shaped opening left behind with two rounded "fins". It was melted and "squished" on the right side when a heat source was used to bend the 312T water hose tube. The eyelet area is raised off the surface of the Karl part it sits on, tapering down from the middle to the melted section.

Ohhh nice , let me try this, I consulted many modelers , and there are different opinions about this misterious piece. Some said its from Entex Porsche , or from 7.5 antitank gunpak 40 L46. I will try yours , thanks a lot

Glad that project is still going

 

[Landiner1]

Thank you, yes, a lot of work to do.

Under body detail. Its a nightmare to trim it all this pieces.
Im not sure if there is a greeblie on the original prop , o is some glue remaining.

Beautiful machining work on the walking skeleton and gun barrels.

What do you think?

Great job, it's tough with the reference being poor for this part. My eyes see the front raised off the surface of the Karl, sloping toward the back where the bottom may be sanded flat and pushed down after heat started to warp it.

Ohhh you are right , its raised in hole side , and goes down because of the heat in the other side. Its a critical step to avoid ruin the piece
