Factory Fresh 1:18 Sturmtiger Conversion

[gary1930]

This might be what a Sturmtiger looked like after conversion from a Tiger I chassis, before heading to the paint shop. Given the shortage of Tiger tanks, Der Fuhrer only permitted Sturmtigers to be made from hulls sent back to the repair shops.

I'll be making a couple more complete Sturmtigers and conversion kits in the near future using laser-cut styrene and resin cast parts. I'll announce it in the B-S-T Forum when they are available.

Gary, Very Nice!!!!! That will be a great custom kit and thankfully we can still find 21st Tiger I's and the JSI Tigers.
What do you think a kit will cost?

Looking sweet so far. Gary does some great custom work and his work table is the neatest I've ever seen.
He has some other nice projects in the works.

all you custom guys need to get together and setup a shop and sell your items on the web.

And mine, both the Sturmtiger and the White Scout Car are from Gary. Great work.

Normandy: I don't have prices in mind. I'll probably put them on Ebay and let you all tell me what they are worth.

gliderdwm: What do you prefer, neat models or a neat work bench? Note that he has three of my conversion kits sitting on his neat work bench!

1958Zelda: That is some great detail work! Wasn't it fun cutting the fenders off? What did you use for the rivets on the hull sides? I used 4 mm doll eyes, but yours look better. Also, what did you use for the Kugelblende (MG ball mount). The angle on those from the Tiger and Panther are not right. I was going to cast some with the correct angle.

TTT: Thanks for the nice comment. Another forum member was asking about a scout car, but the molds and patterns are long gone.

I may just do the White scout car next year.

I was planning on doing it but other projects stepped forward.
