Kurakarl had to redo the designs. His originally were hollow and wouldn't hold up to the casting.

They just came in from the caster and I'm once again impressed with his work.
They are both designed for 15mm. They follow Kurakarl's Italian naming. "Proto" or Protection for the larger APC and "Servo" or Deliver for the smaller APC.

Assembled Proto measures 4.25" long, 1.75" wide.
Servo measures 3.75" long and 1.5" wide.

The details on them are great. The only down side is the thin wings. You have to be really careful cutting them free.

But other than that they are easy 5 piece models to assemble.

Kurakarl is a real wizard, I had him make some turrets for a conversion project of mine and seldom I got such value for my money in a hobby-related purchase!!!

:D

Not a huge fan of Grav tanks but those are excellent – brutal and honest looking.

excellent work

Darby E24 Nov 2012 8:49 a.m. PST

Very cool! Just picked up some of the 6mm ones myself at MilleniumCon flea market. Was surprised that the plastic ones are so under scaled vs. the metal ones.

Love these beasties.

ming3124 Nov 2012 10:15 a.m. PST

And if the barrels aren't to your liking I'm sure Scotty at Combat Wombat would hook you up with some metal ones ;)

Steve W24 Nov 2012 12:11 p.m. PST

They look pretty awesome painted!

Splod8914 Jan 2013 8:57 p.m. PST

Very tasty… I'll be having a few of these. Anyone know if the Heavy Grav Tank is available too?

Splod8915 Jan 2013 6:50 p.m. PST

Just heard from LordNth… Sadly the Heavy Grav Tank is sold out… :/

28mmMan15 Jan 2013 9:45 p.m. PST

John Treadaway16 Jan 2013 7:18 a.m. PST

Got mine many thanks they look great!

artbraune18 Jan 2013 9:10 a.m. PST

What does "Sold Out" mean? Are they making more? Or is this some limited run thing?

LordNth20 Jan 2013 8:50 a.m. PST

meaning he's looking into making all the small bits in metal and not bendy resin. One man operations move a little slow when they are done part time. ;) :)

artbraune20 Jan 2013 3:03 p.m. PST

You get a gold star then. 8^) Both for the response and the attention to detail.

Lion in the Stars20 Jan 2013 4:50 p.m. PST

Still want the Spartius APC, I'd be in for 4:

LordNth20 Jan 2013 5:34 p.m. PST

Me too. I'll get in contact with the sculptor.

The 'sold out' was just for the Heavy Grav tank "Fortis" the two APCs still have some left. Just wanted to make sure no one was confused.

Karlkura21 Jan 2013 8:03 p.m. PST

I will see what I can do, Thanks guys

Splod8920 Feb 2013 3:00 a.m. PST

Damn, I'd take at least two of those… Maybe three. I'd still love a Heavy Grav tank or Two though ;)

spicmart19 Nov 2014 6:43 p.m. PST

Hi Owen.

I have purchased from you some of these (awesome) grav tanks and apcs about 2 years ago.
I'd like to ask you if there are any news like new vehicles or something like that in the meantime?
Haven't been on this board since then.
