If I was to suggest one model that Draf has laseparts for it has to be the PAK40!!

Or else Draf has tracks for the following models
Chi-ha, Chi-he (1:25)
Crusader (1:25)
IS-2 (1:25)
Kingtiger (1:25)
Panther (1:25)
Panzer III (1:16)
Panzer III, IV (1:25)
SdKfz 250 (1:16)
SdKfz 250 (1:25)
T-34 (1:25)
T-54, T-55 (1:25)
T-60 (1:25)
Tiger I (early version) (1:25)

So there might be something that suits you there :)
 
Draf Laser tracks can be ordered here in the US from www.papermodelstore.com

I found the tracks for the Greif but they are for the 1/25 scale version.

Here is the page http://www.papermodelstore.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=82&products_id=3035

If you need the 1/16 version or anything else that you can't find on this site, there is a "contact us" button on they lower left of most pages of the site.

The owners name is Krys and he will answer you and you will find him very helpful and friendly.
I buy a lot of models and accessories from this fellow and I cannot recommend him highly enough! He's just fantastic!

Another update on the Greif.
I have been working on wheels,tracklinks and other details lately.

Unfortunately I have lost some of the parts during my move to the new construction site, so I had to make the wheels without some parts( luckily they are hidden parts inside the wheels)
So I had to do some braintwisting figuring how to make the wheels without the parts and improvise to get them look like the others.

The tow hook.


The finished wheels....just 3 more to go :)


Some parts that will be put on later since it's so easy to damage them at this stage.




Some handgrips over the drivers head


I'm not sure what to call this part...


The pile of jerrycans rises!


At last a couple of overviews of the finished side :)
 
WOW this is very nice..... i want it too! Guess it would have been a good idea to make a copy of the plans before cutting and gluing, this way you would have had the parts......

I'm so scared i will make a stuff up and always make copy's and rather build the copies
 
Yeah go ahead and rub it inn Werner :)

I know I know I know.....but I didn't scan the model.....
But I will next time.....promise....or maybe.....or I forgot again :)
 
I have to finish this one in a couple of weeks....so I can start on my next major project....The famous " Tante JU "
So next week there will be a lot of updates on the Greif!!
 
I also hope that the JU will be a lot of fun to try to build!
It's really a huge project.....
But since I build a bit here and there I can have two models in the works at the same time :)
So you just prepare for some action in a very near future!!
 
Here comes the update for the Greif!!

The front shield that protect the front axel and steering


The rifles are done....


All jerrycans in place


The last hatch on the front are done


The rightside tracks are piling up


The ouside details are ready, some parts only missing some paint


The wheels on the right side are also finished


I will make the rest of the tracks in a few days and the Greif will be finished.
 
Hi Josve,

All I can say is WOW! Keep up the good work. I also visited your fantastic website. Thanks for the pictures.
 
:thumb:All i can say is that is one of the most beautiful and detailed models i have ever seen , GREAT job, a real inspiration to someone like me just getting into paper modeling :p Maybe in 5 or 10 years i can do it that good sign1
 
Finished!!

Thanks for your nice words my friends!!

Today I finished (almost) the Greif. I will do some more dusting and weathering after the baseplate is done.
So here it is!!! The long awaited Sd.Kfz 250/3 Greif!!









 
Simply superb! I think you missed a little detail underneath the display stand though ;)

Thanks Chris!!
What detail?? I have looked over and over and only see one of the headlights are upside down......man I'm blind as a hen sometimes (or very often really)


I was outside earlier today and took some daylight pics between the rainshowers
