    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    I guess I said that wrong… there are some instructions, but lots of things were not discussed. I am not complaining at all, this is a pretty neat FREE model. I haven’t built a paper model lately and am used to seeing perspective views of where the parts go. That’s me… I will be sure to post...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    I will post pics later, but I am struggling with this thing. Essentially no instructions… I have to try to become the designer. Sigh… I’m having fun, but wearing out. There are all sorts of parts scattered on the pages, and I have no idea what they are or where they go. I guess I will cut them...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Here are the translations for the 4 ‘instruction’ pages. The first page has no title, the last page has only a title. ———————————————————— Satir Armored truck instructions in English with drawings First page of instructions: I recommend to assemble tracked belts, G1 parts before installing...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    Disregard what I said above about the folding of the frame… I have been studying the drawings and there seems to be a full belly pan for this thing. If all the sides are folded DOWN in that view, the pan would fit there. It isn’t called out in instructions that I can find. BUT, for future...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    OK, here goes. After looking at that pic above again, and posing the base and shields from the gun kit on the test print of the Satir, I decided to go for it. I printed the frame page and compared it to the test print. I found that allowing the PDF file to print at “100%” size, it came out the...

    An Anti-aircraft gun carrier.

    I am planning on using one of the @ARMORMAN ’s provided models to build a carrier for the WWII German 20mm anti-aircraft gun. This is the model: And I hope to come up with something on this order by mounting the Tamiya gun kit and Tamiya gun crew kit on the back of the truck. Hopefully it...

    Good idea, thanks. I have cluttered up this one enough. I did want folks to know about the scale issues though. Thanks for the help!

    A memorial to my mum (A BRTC25 Thunder Fighter in BSG livery).

    This model would look great hanging from a bit of fishing line and being allowed to dance in the breeze in the house. My silly cargo ship model is hanging and swinging over my work area. It is fun to watch it move around.

    ARMORMAN's WARHAMMER 40K Models Thread

    Well, here are the results. The Satir on the right, the tub/chassis of a German Halftrack (1/35 scale) in the middle and the other truck on the left. Both printouts were done at the same scale… I took the original page (which I ASSumed) to be A4 size and made it fit letter size paper length...

    Thanks! That one looks good. It also appears that it is much smaller than the other one. I’ll try to print samples and do a measurement. I was prepared to enlarge the Satir, but it seems big. I’ll report back.

    ARMORMAN's WARHAMMER 40K Models Thread

    Yes, thank you. I checked my copy and the link you posted… same place, same file. The instructions seem to be only from the left side and also spread on the parts sheets. I guess I will print it out and start working on it. I need a carrier for a German 20mm 4 barrel flak gun. :biggrin: A...

    Does anyone have a picture of a built Satir truck? This one: I can‘t quite figure out how to build it.

    You obviously need to build a trailer for her. :biggrin: I bet stepping the mast would be a chore for the little people sailing it. You DO have little people, right? of course… THREE eyed ones to boot!

    I have several tons (really, it is for our garden plot) buried under snow now. I’ll retrieve a can full and screen it to get the different sizes.

    You must have infinite patience. Countless tiny bits of paper to cut and glue… :eek:

    Looking great! Please explain your ‘sand effect’ when you post the pics of that. I have some to do.
