King & Country Conversion (1 Viewer)

Didn't want to wait for two years for new Afrika Korps equipment so I converted my LAH Pz1 to Sd.Kfz 101 Panzerjager.

good job, what do you had to use for made the turret?

 

[Joey]

Very impressive! Same question: how did you make the turret?

 

[Alexdakar]

Wow! I was going to repaint my panzer I to make it into an Afrika Korps tank but I didn't even think about converting it. Thats cool.

Made the turret by shaping the plates from old credit cards, then molded Majic Sculpt around the cards. The gun is converted from an old K&C Pak antitank gun that someone sold on Ebay as a separate piece after they painted it white.

A little better view of the gun.

That's very good work. Nice job of research on a fairly obscure vehicle. I also admire your fortitude, as much as I enjoy converting and/or detailing, I just can't cut up $100.00 tanks! You have guts!

Rick,

As usual, your work is great! How in the world did you think to use old credit cards to shape the turret? I would have never thought of that in a million years.

Warm regards,

Pat

Pat,
It came to me as I was sitting there trying to figure out how I was going to shape the Majic Sculpt. Every now and then I even surprise myself.

Semper Fi!

Rick,

Your inspiration to use old credit cards is nothing short of genius. Now, if you could only think of some way to utilize those pesky CD's that come in the mail periodically, I would declare you a true genius! Again, wonderful work! Thanks for posting the pictures.

Warm regards,

Pat

Really well done Rick. Lets hope Andy sees it and it gives him some ideas.

Very nice job on the Panzer I conversion. I have too have done some K&C conversions but nothing so cool. I have taken the back panel on the GMC truck bed and made it as if it were in the down position to unload the vehicle and I have replaced the Krupp truck's windshields with clear plastic.

I hope Andy takes notice. We do need more SPA. The Grille is great and needs a AK brother. Perhaps he will get your permission to use some old credits cards and do the same model. I'd buy it.
