T28/95

[Glenn]

This is a little project I've been working on, for a couple of years. Scaled at 1/35 and having to buy two Dragon M4 A3 E8's and also two sets of HVSS track assembly. The body is card over a wooden basic frame with Sherman parts dotted here and there. I know there is a resin model of this beast, but scratching it seemed more fun. Seeing only 2 were ever built, (and neither exist any more) I've decided to do mine as a production model, ETO, 1946 "Tiger Killer" (that's a joke!)

Plans from a set of Bellona prints, upscaled to 1/35th

You built it out of card and wood?  I'd never have guessed, looking at that photo.  What sort of cannon was supposed to have armed that beast?

Aye Carumba!  

Look at that beast, she's a gun on wheels!

Amazing - now how about a "Tortoise" ?

The gun was a 105mm T5E1 High Velocity weapon

 looking fantastic Glenn, but where are the outer track units?  

found out the other day that someone does a white metal T28 in 1/72 or 1/76, and as I'm dumping 1/35 armour for small scale stuff so I might well get round to building one eventually (must get a Cromwell Tortoise too...    )

[Glenn]

I haven't got around to the outer tracks, as you can see from the photo, I haven't added the inner tracks yet! But, when it's finished, yes, a Tortoise is on the cards.
It wasn't much of a tank, more a Stug, but if they had got into production, one look at them would have frightened the Krauts!

Looks fantastic!!!!!!!!

Can't wait to see it finished!
