Ok, long time no update. The good news is that I finally got some time to knock out two big problems. During the process of assembling the Wirbelwind kit, I was inspired by pickels use of tiny bolts and nuts to make various portions operational. Anyway, using similar parts, I was able to make the trail arms and stabilization plate fully operational. Up to this point I was being a complete moron and thinking I would make these parts from scratch. Doh! Thanks Pic!

At about the same time, I made my first foray into the world of airbrushing and applied a tri-color camo.

I have one or two more tweaks to make and once finished I will make these available for sale to those that are interested.

Thank you for your patience..

Pay no attention to the drunken guy on fire above my post...

Grunt,
Excellent! I like the added touches of the working trail arms and stabilization plate. Well, done!

Grunt, any more intel on this project? I don't know what it is but I always thought this was a cool model/weapon...as long as you were building the model/or launching the real thing.
just wouldn't want to be on the receiving end........"incoming".......

I'm having trouble with the smaller bits like the tubing on the rocket pods. Not sure why it's an issue this time, but for whatever reason it is. I hope to have that sorted out this week.

Wow.. First off let me apologize for such long delays. My first manufacturer
backed out which was enough to almost kill the project. The good news is that
setback forced me to look some more and I found others that were willing to
pick up the slack. I have the final design done, with the wheels and axle
working, finally! I also increased the size of the unit by about 20% so it would
work better with the figures from 21st Century and Dragon.

Here are some updated photos.

This looks great !!!

I love the detail.

Grunt, your Nebelwefer looks great! I hope 21st....uh All-Go and some of the other 1:18th manufactures have been taking notes. You, Pickelhaube, The Hun and others have produced products that the members want..........maybe you guys should work for them.

maritime96 · Post by **maritime96** » Sun Jan 24, 2010 3:24 pm

Looks Fantastic Grunt, can't wait till you have these ready!!

You'll note that the finishing is very good in some areas but there are some rough textures in others. I have another more expensive material I am going to try that might help a lot there for those that are interested. This might result in a premium edition or something. We'll see.

The first run of the basic unit will be $110. If you add an ammo kit figure $140. Note that these prices are subject to change.

* painted and or unpainted of course ?

Great question.

Now that the final design is done, I just need to finalize the materials. This decision has a direct impact on price and quality. There are two options on the table and I should have samples in hand very soon. At that point we should ready to set the final price and take orders.
