I have recently completed 4 1/35 E75 tanks as seen in the game World of Tanks. The models were modified from the Trumpeter 1/35 E75 kit. The gun barrel was replaced and exhaust guards added

Some nice looking amendments to the standard kit. Have you looked at www.paperpanzer.com? John has some excellent parts for this vehicle from replacement road wheels and toothed idler to a new turret and gas turbine engine. Really nice mouldings.

Did the same thing myself a couple years back. Used a JT 120mm gunbarrel and some styrene tubing for the exhaust

If you wait a few days John will have updated the site with some new releases shown at Scale Model Challenge. There are some nice looking items. Fancy a gas turbine E-75 with the extra width Lowe track and ERA? Or maybe a Jagd E-75??

Looking at the 'Radar und KDO40 Turm Heimdall' page, I had a thought that sent me to Wikipedia to check it; the chronology sort of works to build that on a Panther hull, paint Bakelite cover for the radar red, and hand-paint the vehicle name 'Rudolf' on the side... I don't know how well-distributed the booklets Montgomery Ward would have been for the character to be known in Germany. The mental image is still funny, though.

John still has not updated his page yet but I can tell you some new releases are: Jagd E-50/75, cast hull Panther, cast Beobachtungs Panther, conversions to fit Lowe track to E-50/75, new parts for E-25. All very nicely cast.
