[motero96]

thanks for all this information, did not think to take so many kits, missing me a lot. sorry for my bad English, my name is sergio and I am from Spain

 

[Guy Cowen]

Not all them kits are used on the legs, are you building the body and head ?

 

[joewhite]

Mars,

You still selling those acrylic disks?

hi joe , the pd kit?
I know a guy who may sell the kit here in australia
if you refer to the acrylic disc we only did a set for julien, Guy and half for lee, i am still to do mine lol
there are 30 plus discs , very acurately lathed, i think Guys and Juliens were within .2 of a mm.
we never sold these,
if there was someway of someone or a group willing to do the legs for the rest , I am sure Guy, Julien, Robert and myself would be happy to share all our information and probably make better legs than what ILM had!
One can only dream i guess........

 

[joewhite]

Understood, I thought I may have missed out on a good opportunity. Yeah, if the project ever kicks off, I would buy a set.

I very much doubt anyone is mad enough to make the leg legs on mass, it's def a labour of love, if I can do em then most here can , the discs are very specific in size but I did my first set with just stock abs tube filled with resin and they still work and look great.

I can't imagine how much brain space was used to make the discs in acrylic mars, glad you did though

 

[joewhite]

Right, the legs look like plenty of fun to make. ..aggravating I'm sure... but fun nonetheless. The discs are what I would personally be interested in. They look like they add so much stability.

Oh, and I bought your PD kit.

 

[motero96]

we could make a list of people who want to collaborate in making molds of small parts that can be sent over, I am willing to back the pieces I already have and send them on, we could save costs in our model.

 

[motero96]

an update.

 

[motero96]

Someone can tell me I'm missing parts to complete this leg ?

 

[MonsieurTox]

Nice job !

 

[Guy Cowen]

Looking great, from memory I think this leg also needs

Esci 10/4 1/35
Airfix 1/600 Belfast
Tamiya 1/700 Taiho
Tamiya 1/35 88mm

 

[motero96]

[motero96]

Hello , can someone help ,

20mm Tamiya could be Flakvierling 38 Anti- Aircraft Gun 1/35

 

[MonsieurTox]

It was a long time ago but I think the pink part is from the Esci 10/4

 

[motero96]

Thank you very much Monsieur Tox.

hello guy as will your probe droid ? I have two kits and more , the sdkfz 10/4 and 36/37 88 mm flak gun , you need a piece ?

 

[Guy Cowen]

I'm good thanks Sergio, your parts will be in the post this week bud, I'm only missing a few Quad parts and Lamps, if anyone has any spare lamps let me know as a plastruct order for 6 things is a bit pricey?

 

[mslz22]

Yep, there are a few other parts in that kit you need for one of the "probes" or sensor/tool things that go under the body too i believe.

It was a long time ago but I think the pink part is from the Esci 10/4

 

[Guy Cowen]

Thats correct, the Phil Brown moment that led to a lot more

 

[motero96]

guy, which parts you need a quad?
