I thought I just wish for a PAK 40 and hope that who ever did the kit would fall in line with the 1/16 scale thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg W Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 Rick, is this something that might fit the bill? https://www.bimfico.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=577070 Greg LSP_K2 and CATCplSlade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of my memory, 1/15th or 120mm figure scale ones were released (e.g. Verlinden) but not in 1/16th scale. 1/16 and 120mm are basically interchangeable. Just like 1/32 and 54mm.

The Marder III had a 465cm length. This means 31cm in 1/15th but 29cm in 1/16th! Close to one inch is quite a difference. So adding a 1/15th gun on a 1/16th tank will look weird.

I have a 1/16 WWII Kafer on the back burner, so I run across large scale armor stuff like that, when looking around at things online for my VW project.

LSP_Ray Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Vandra also has a Soviet AA gun you could make into an early Marder III! LSP_K2, thierry laurent and Rick Griewski 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Now I'm considering the idea of a 1:16 Flak 38 mounted on the Panzer IV chassis for an awesome Mobelwagen, but have no idea if the Flak is available or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember the upper hull structure was modified for the Mobelwagen in order to support the drop-gates. Not at all the same as a stock Pz IV. And also that the Flak 38 version was just the prototype; the Flak 37 was the production vehicle.

It's just that the version with the Flak 38 quad, was so darned cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Mike Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 A little thread drift guys? A 1/16 Marder might be tough. Prolly find a machine shop to turn a barrel, but you might need to scale up some 1/35 parts for the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
