From Michael Fichtenmayer of fictenfoo.com, I present the KV-X2:



It's being offered as a kit.

This just begs for a Pz.Kpfw. IV to be done in response!

Regards,

Greg

Fitchenfoo (assuming it's the same guy) is or was (been a while) a member of my local IPMS chapter. Nice enough fellows but when I attended a meeting, the climate was whiff free unfortunately.

Maybe the climate has changed since your last visit and the club is more acceptable to this aspect of the hobby.  Not much different from the model car builders that build models of things that never existed in real life.

One of the figures in that KV2 dio looks like he had a dodgy kebab last night  ;D Terrific work on it though
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Good to know his site's still there. I thought it went off-line. Apparently he changed from .com to .net. So my bookmarks were outdated.

The dio for the KV-2 walker is simply breath-taking!  :o

Absolutely love his BRIEGEL DIORAMA




:bow: Awe-inspiring! :bow:
Cheers,
Moritz


Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
