A Lucky Find...

 Saw this on our local online eBay equivalent as starting at $1 so set an auto bid up to $15 - and won the auction at $9.50. In conversation with the seller, he agreed to meet me as he also lives in Pukekohe, thus saving me a $10 shipping fee.

Turns out it's the same guy I bought four 3d printed Opel Blitz trucks off - they were a bit rough but still a bargain at the time - and he has obviously been practising because he printed this vehicle himself and although not perfect, it's pretty damn good!

I have his email address, and mobile number so might talk to him about me buying a couple of STL files and how much he would charge me to print them off.......hmmm, possibilities, possibilities!




There ARE some "build marks" on the top of the turret, but I can live with that





With one of the RKX 3d Berlin Defenders figures for scale 



Pictured with my Warlord 28mm plastic kit Tiger for scale - close enough, in my opinion!

So, this might be the next thing to hit the painting desk over the weekend!
