90% Scratch Panzerwerfer 42 Maultier

The lower Maultier chassis assembly.

Bogie Wheel assembly, the wheels are not glued yet.

Sorry for not updating this post guys here what I have done so far.

At this point I putt the track on and repositioned the bogies for I can get the chassis ready for some ruff terrain on a base I'm working on.

Once I got to this point I then stared on the lower hull that I had to fix later. (The width was rong)

Oh first the finised engine.

Next the first lower hull and then the fixed lower hull.

This is the first loewer hull that I thought was right but found in time was rong and had to be fixed.

Now the fixed lower hull with it's floor photo-etch tread plate inplace. [Note] I had started on the side storage bins. I'm watting for my PE set comes end to finish those side bins. Now in my photos to come you will see my work on the upper hull and dash as well as other interior items.

After laying out a mock-up of the upper hull parts and then reshaping a lot of them i thin started test fitting part and then fully gluing parts in place.

I have some much needed decals and photo-etch parts.

You know this is realy a fun build so far. here's were it stands right now. Yeah I'm going to have alevery thing open.

Wow! Looking great glad to see you moving right along- what's the styrene sheet thinckness for the hull?

It looks pretty good from where I'm sitting. I really like how you're going to show off that suspension with such a bumpy terrain.

Are you going to scratch the Panzerwerfer out of metal tubing or just attach a modified plastic kit?

Either way looking forward to it, I see you're at least thinking about the tri-color scheme, glad to see that as I think it'd be more interesting than the plain gray or yellow.

Ambitious project!

Looking forward to more WIP's. Its good to see a build that is not available in a kit. It really highlights all the skills and research required to accomplish a accurate scale miniature of the real vehicle.
