Thanks! I was lucky to catch that last accessories pack on eBay from a UK vendor by the time I was working on my Stug3. I've asked him many times if he is gonna restock that bike and stowage accessories pack in the future. No luck so far. So for the Ferdinand I bought a 3D printed bike from Shapeways instead.

My tank pool -
Stuff I've built- (apart from the IS-2)
T-55
M4a1
Chally 2 being painted.
SU-152 waiting to be painted.
T-35 currently being built (almost done).
Maus being printed
Also have a load of RTR's-
Chieftain, Ferdinand, T-90, T-72, T-34/85, Tiger II and M16. Then there's about a dozen that are in bits waiting to be rebuilt. If this lockdown can continue for a year or so then I might make a dent in my to-do list.

I can immediately tell you are Warrenhudson when I saw that Panzer 2 on the shelf! Amazing builds! Glad to see you've made such great progress on the SU 152.
I read all your posts about the Hooben Ferdinand RTR before getting mine, helped me a lot! Where did it end up for you though?
Also, I bought those 30cals, 50cals, and mountings on my builds from his Shapeways sites. Be sure to check it out if you ever need some 1/16 accessories.

Yes. I used Tinkercad to design them. The number above the door is a subtle reminder of what was going on when I built this one. I will go back and make windows for the other buildings when I have time. The buildings are built from MDF and held together with grooves, gravity and velcro, so they can be disassembled and stored in plastic bins. They are part of my ever-growing battlefield used for Veteran's Day displays at schools.

Oh, I like the medical tent.

Would you be willing to share STL files, or possibly make a trade? I have some pretty good Gothic Window files and several different doors with door knobs that I could trade for some Window files from you, if that sounds interesting to you. I'm always on the lookout for new Window files, and someday when I get a place with a little more land I intend to build another Ansbach West.
I also like the medical tent, what kind of material did you use for that? I've been using a material called supplex to make tents and it seems to work really well. I have a design for a GP medium tent that should be easy to make, I just need to learn how to use this brand new sewing machine I have in the closet.

Oh yeah, I also have files for a couple of different porches that look just great on the front of any building. I'm hoping we can work out some kind of trade, but if you don't want to trade and you do want the files I have I will still share them with you.

I am finally going to call my Russian SMK finished, today I did a bit more "accessorizing" and a touch more dust and dried up mud. I don't think we ever really finish a model, we just get tired of working on it!

And I finally converted my 1/6 Kettenkrad to R/C. I have had this "toy" for years and never had a set of gear boxes that would work for an R/C conversion. After finishing my SMK I had the left over KV-1 parts which worked perfect! The Kettenkrad has the Henglong radio system with the sound board so I did not have to spend a penny for the conversion including the transmitter (the Kettenkrad sounds like a KV-1). Now my 1/6 Tiger 1 has something to run over

here's one of my finished tanks.
It is a sherman M4A2 of the 2nd Division Armored (French 2e db ) 12th RCA.
It participated in the liberation of Paris, Strasbourg and the capture of the Eagle's Nest.
It passed my building and his first tank commander was killed 150m from my home by a sniper. I wanted to pay tribute to him.
(sorry for my english)
