For those of you that know me……
I am a producer of Small Scale Armor……
Cpl Overby's Motor Pool
Well on the 23rd of July a customer sent me an email order asking for an E50……
well that's what my brain saw….. E50
So I accepted the order and got started on it…….
I reopened the email to write down his address……..
and then I saw it…… he didn't want an E50…….
(this model)

He wants a Jagdpanzer E50

Well I already took his money, and spent it so now I am stuck…….
But I am not letting it stop me.
So I am creating the Panzer Zerstorer E50

Here is the start

so here I am……. because of my own shortsightedness…….
Custom making a model for a customer. :)


It's at 9pm of the 26th …. so I am calling it a night…..
but here I am at closing.

I have decided that I no longer like the tracks,
they are from an old mold and it's "about time" I made a new master.
So Thats what I did today……
They are in the rubber now,
and when that are done,
I will post a new set of pic's for you all to compare. :)

(There is a "very" slight droop in the gun……
and for some reason the camera causes it to multiply.

I would heat it to straighten it out……. put it's already painted.)

Here we are on 5 August
Well…..I found the tracks to be disappointing……
and thus had decided to make new masters and molds for them.

Please tell me what you think.

I think it is an excellent piece of kit.

Very impressive! What scales are you open to doing for commission work? I'd be interested in 15mm and 10mm for masters to cast in metal. Any interest in that sort of work? dperrin *at* donperrin.com.
