Porsche Tank

Drew these a long time ago, finally could afford a set. At first i wanted to do a truck but that would be predictable and kind of meh.


Then it dawned one me a Porsche I had this 10$ Porsche all ready to go but the body is really, really, nice for a snapkit and the wing is molded on. then i remembered i got one of those yellow fujimi carrera's stashed somewhere which is wingless when i find that ill update the pictures
for now the snap version by revell.

Re: Porsche Tank

Yep, cool. I assume that the tracks were 3-D printed?

Re: Porsche Tank

Aww - I'm jealous!

looks cool

When I was skiing in Italy, I came across these on the top of the hill and always wanted to make a Fiat 500 version of them but could never find a solution for the tracks. Yuo did better than me - you made your own! Kudos

LOL, These were originally designed for trucks which is why theyre so tall, i never intended on putting them on a Porsche till i had a crazy dream about it.
Heres what they look like on a truck. I do have a 1.5 inch tall version of the tracks but they also have 3/4 less detail due to file size regulations by shapeways if youre interested they do need the track detail engraved in,

Re: Porsche Tank

Are you going to paint your Porsche tank with "tiger" stripes (or maybe in gray)?
