Full Metal Panzer - FMP- is a small 3 man shop several hours north of me in Wuxi, due west of Shanghai. They supply DKLM their fabled gearboxes, lower hulls & other assorted parts which are their bread & butter lines. For 1/6 models, besides the Luchs underway they have their PzIII - StuG pending if they see enough interest - as well a Tiger I working. Volume is small but quality very good. They also take on commission work for aftermarket upgrades from local owners of Armotek, HL & Warslug metal tanks. Heard some horror stories of Warslug's KT just last week from the few they actually sold locally - crazy given the cost!
I posted a thread on 11/1/19 with details & links. Their website is no longer up since they saw no need for it but Saer does maintain his Facebook & Instagram pages where you can see more photos of their work.
