New Project for me.

Am building a 1/35th scale model of the Faun Tank Transporter to start with and then hoping to build a 1/6th scale model. Should be pretty impressive I think.

Hi Dennis,

That's amazing new project to take on, especially when you come to building the 6th scale version!

Wish you well in that project.

Cheers for now
Ian

Nice project Dennis!.I think if I was doing a modern transporter, I would have done the Scammell that wasn't picked by UK forces .Much nicer than the oshkosh.i hope you are going to do a build blog for this one too :D

If you build the tractor and trailer in 1/6 scale this will be 3.65 :shock: meters long the tractor being 1.47 meters and trailer 2.18 meters this will truly be a large impressive vehicle you just need a 1/6 scale Leopard to finish it off and at the moment there are none commercially available.

It will probably take a while and perhaps Mark might do one by then. I did look at the Scammel but I think it would be a more complicated build

Great stuff Dennis, what an inspiring project. Before Mark does the Leopard however, there is the small matter of the Chieftain......Good luck with the build. Stephen

I would definitely buy the Chieftain!.I would have to do it in the Berlin Brigade camouflage.Probably be a nightmare to paint :shock: .We have a real Chieftain in storage at work to copy off :D
