Panzer VIII Maus for Bolt Action

thingiverse

I've made a few alterations to p0Pe's design, it looks more like the Warthunder Maus now. Mainly picked apart the model, and added more detail, scaled it to 28mm I've made the grooves for welds a bit more pronounced so you don't have to spend hours scratching them in, just fill them with a thin strip of putty and make your own welds. Sideskirts can be cut in half and printed flat on the buildplate for smoothest result. note that the top part has some issues, but it prints fine, I wasn't able to figure out what was wrong with it. I'll list it as a work in progress as I'm still messing with stuff, but feel free to download the files and toy with it yourself. Note that I've made the suspension fixed, hence why there are 4 versions, the hexagons are slightly angled to make it look more "natural". You could make articulated tracks with these files, but I wouldn't recommend doing it on 28mm scale, it'd be nigh impossible to properly link up the tracks. To attach the cogs to the hull, drill a hole in the hull and put in some styrene rod (or metal). I think that's everything. Happy printing!
