The latest Pavehawk parts and window frames are done.

All of the last Humvee turret orders have been filled. Even the latest full build. It looks like this may come in as the 2nd most popular of my customs. I think maybe about 50 kits.

1. Pavehawk parts . Well over 100 sets
2. Humvee turret over 50
3. Indy car around 40
4. Wirblewind around 40
5. Sdkfz 222 high 20's

Image

All of the dozer blade orders have been filled even the last full build.

Image

The 3 month Indycar full build has been done . Here it is with the third and final paint job. I think it turned out great. Next time I will not experiment. :?

Image
Image

All of the M-3 kits have been poured . The last part being the front rollers. All I have to do now is make the directions and they wil ship out. You guys who want the full builds please get me those tracks ASAP. So I can get them done and get on that T-23 turret project. Then it will be T-34 time !!!!

Everything that is ready will probably get shipped out on Monday.

THANKS GUYS !!!!

It is !!!!

Thanks !! It is the first full build fully painted model I have done in 20 years !!!! Plenty of headeachs but it was still fun to do !!

I cut out the rear area. Filled the seams , thinned out the front fender, and converted the head lamp to night vision.

If I ever get the time I want to do one for myself. I will not hold my breath :?

Thanks for the support !!!

All of the orders have gone out.

Except the M-3 TD and Abrams mods. They should go out Friday.

I over looked somethings on the M-3 inside the crew area sides. They are a mirror imgae. 2 fuel cells , 2 jerry cans and 2 thin equipment boxes. I did the fuel cells but not the double jerries and the double equpt.boxes. I need to pour those for a complete kit.

Hopefully the M-3 kits/full builds will go out on Friday along with the Abrams mods.

Thanks :D

I will have full attention on the T-34 this weekend. So hopefully I will have something to show on Sunday.

Next week again I will be busy with my "real " job. That is a good thing.

Well I goofed on an order.

Or shall i say one of my customers on the board DID NOT GET THEIR ORDER.

I am sorry about that Johnny. :oops: :oops: :oops:

I am not sure what happend but his avatar name was close to another forums "real name " and that got mailed off.

I am guilty of this myself , but PLEASE REMBER TO INCLUDE THIS INFORMATION WITH YOUR ORDERS.

Money orders as well as pay pal.

1. Your forum name
2. Your full " real name "
3. Your correct mailing address.
4. What you are paying for .


Sometimes for some reason paypal does not give your address. So when I pull up paypal when I am ready to ship. No address is found.

This happens about 1 out of 5 times.

Also for extra asurance please PM me with the same info it helps to have this as a back up.

Thanks,

Matthew

Hi Matthew,
I've just joined this forum. Still looking for Pave Hawk customs, miniguns & amo box, refuelling boom, nose radar, FLIR and windows insert for my BBI 1:18 Helo. Do you still have them?

PM stands for Private message.

Sorry I did not get back to you on that.

Sorry guys this is the worse update ever.

My real job has been activated. This is great for me ( now I can pay the bills ) but bad for the customs.

Pat- I will start your order hopefully on Friday.

Weylen- I have not had the chance to box up you buddies Stuart . It will be sent ASAP , hopefully Friday.

I have not had the chance to work on the T-34.

I need to get started on Pat's order then get back on it.

I have a tiny job to do ( real job ) the week before Christmas.

I will be putting in the over time to try and get the T-34 out before Christmas so you guys will have it by then.

Sorry for the delays guys.

In some ways it is bad timing for my real work but GREAT timing to get caught up with the bills before the holidays.

Matthew, I'm glad to hear you've got some "real" work coming in! Life first hobby second... :roll:
Great news on the possible December release of the T-34, I'll be looking forward to it and let us know when you want the order information and payment.

Hello Matthew,
I hope not to be too boring with me repeated request for a complete, painted custom set for my Pave Hawk. I'm now trying to make skis, to obtain better outdoor pics of my HH-60G with all the snow we now have in Switzerland. But without the guns, fuel boom, FLIR and radar, it's worthless.
I could'nt put pictures of last winter with a UH-60 from my PC into this message, don't understand how to use the [img] button, can somebody help?
Best regards, Chris

Well I think you guys guessed it the T-34 will not be ready for Christmas.

Sorry for that guys. With my regular work stepping up it was just not to be.

But...

The 2 Sdkfz 222's will sip out on Monday
M-3 Td will ship
Dozer blade will ship
Firefly kit will ship

Charlie the full build sdkfz 222 will not ship as per our confersation.

But it will go out the first of the year.

After the T-34 build is done and under way I will start the new Pavehawk and Humvee orders.

Give it about 2 more weeks guys on those new orders and we will be back in the swing of things.

Once I get caught up on those I will start the 105 Howitzer :D :D :D

I'm personnaly not interested now in upgrading my F-16. Priority set on my Pave Hawk (will have to wait a little bit more on Pickel's five stars kit).
I would prefer to find a custom kit to make the UH/HH-60 cockpit better, so the upper instrument panel, collective/throttle joysticks. The Kiowa has both, why not the Black and Pave Hawk???
At least, if I'm not able to make the skis, it could also be a request to Pickelhaube.
How much of these BBI helo's from SSMHQ members could so be better?

Pickelhaube - I really like your custom blackhawk kits! The price looks good, how do I order a full set with crew chief window inserts and frames; miniguns; radar and FLIR? Headhunter
