1/16 tanker heads. This is straight from the mold, uncleaned, I didn't notice the dust, etc until I uploaded the pics. I'll get better ones soon, including painted.

For all you 'Furious' tankers out there:

That looks just great, Ausf. Your talent never ceases to amaze me. Have you ever done any civilian figures? Those are very hard to find in our scale, but I'd really love to get my hands on the family that runs my little farm. A couple of frumpy hausfraus would be a most welcome addition to my growing tank world in the back yard. Maybe one out feeding the chickens. Of course, then I'd just be complaining that I can't find 1/16 scale chickens. I do have a duck, though!

I like that! It's a piece of art. How much?

Thanks Max.

I've done all types and there are plenty civilian figures out there, but they're probably listed as 120mm. Keep in mind they're mostly for figure painters, so they price will be premium.

I'll release this as an inexpensive head (as well as the rest of the crew) for RC guys, then rework the master as a full kit with cupola, body and separate gear (clear goggles, etc.).

Thanks.

I've got to work the numbers, but probably around $14 shipped CONUS, $16 worldwide.

Nice work! I must have one... or two!

Now were did I hide my credit cards at?

Simply stunning...love it....

Yes, that looks very nice. Interesting idea on the scene you want to portray,

That looks great! Are you planning on full figures (or at least torso and up for TCs), or just the heads? Could use some USMC tankers from WWII and Korean War...maybe some Chinese or Korean tankers from the Korean War.

Thanks guys.

No full figures specifically for RC, the market is too small. I did the Russian for the JS-2 and it took much more time getting it to fit the Tamiya base and assemble to grip the hatch, etc. than it would to create a separate kit with a cupola for the figure painters. A resin 1/16 goes for $50-60 in the figure world, but that Russian is slow mover at $25.

I'll do the US tanker head as a full (and the rest of the tank's crew) as a static kit with cupola that you can adapt, but offering the heads would be an inexpensive way to upgrade what's out there. Tamiya's M4 TC has the pose close enough, so if you want 'Wardaddy' in charge, just add the head.

Here's the Russian if you haven't seen it, I'll be reworking the master to hold communication flags and adding a cupola to the kit.

I want one!

Yes Sir!

Beautiful Work!!!

I'd be up for one or two as well...

How do I go about purchasing one of your Russian TC's?
He looks Great!

I need a few, yesterday.

I'll be running resin tomorrow, so for now if anyone wants one of these or the jerry can set, just PM me and I'll put some aside and get you a price before I go through packaging, etc. and set them up on eBay (I won't be selling these on the website, just full kits, but stand by it just like anything else, if you don't like it, I'll take it back, no questions asked).

Here's the jerrycan set: 5 dented, pre assembled with different markings.

Thanks Gus,

I'll check it I have any Russians ready to go, if not I'll run some tomorrow too.

AUSF What is your website? I am interested in the Wardaddy head.

If you Left Click on his User Name then select Visit Homepage it should take you right to it...

Happy Tanking!

Here's the website, but it doesn't have any 1/16 on it at this point. It was geared towards the 1/35 static world for years.

I'm not putting anything on it until I have a full fledged line going, so just PM me if you want something (or email direct [email protected] ).

I have Jeff's set of dented Jerry cans and they are really nice. The photo dose not do them justice.

I got the info, Cool site. Thank You.

Okay guys, got 'em packaged and ready to go.

Posted info in the classifieds. They're also on eBay.

Thanks again for the interest.

Sorry, Russians are all gone. I'll have an updated version as a static kit with cuploa and commo flags. Unfortunately the master is already broken down, otherwise I'd remold it as is for RC.

PM sent.
