Never seen the first one.

The second is a paper panzer, it's played in World of Tanks.

BlitzGrieg has built the JP2 and has the whole thing on video, but you could start with his in box review:

Its on the box bottom left corner in silver. A bit hard to read, but it is definitely 1/35 for both.
I suspect both are paper panzers.

Hey Pete

There's an example of the second one on the forum already. Darklen is building it.

Is there a connection between the modelling community and World of Tanks? I'm really happy that more tanks that only existed on paper came to life through the game and are now models. I just dont know why its happening. Are kit manufacturers just looking for new subjects or is the player base of 45 million world wide likely to include a percentage of modellers that makes it worth while?

I just purchased the Amusing 28cm Sturmmörser 38D. It looks clean and well detailed. The Hobby shop owner in HOng Kong felt it is an up and coming company, it's a new tool.

We will see

I find the company name interesting. Its obviously tailored for the English speaking market but I wonder if something was lost in translation. I cant see the demographic they are aiming for with 'Amusing'.

Looks like they are working their way through WoT - May I hope they take on the Swedish tech-tree as well ;)

object 279 was built but never made it to full production. Impressive in the trails it could swim through a sea of mud and withstand a nuclear blast without getting flipped over onto it's back or worse.

The company is based in Japan and have a main distributor in German, it is a bit weird ?

Unfortunately I don't typically post build stuff on the forum, I find the posting of photos through a third party web site to be difficult. I have posted only while participating in a GB.

I do from time to time post crap on the FB page.

But what's funny is it could be 20 years before I get to this kit, ha.

:ooops:

Pete, I am getting rid of it. Due only to the fact that it is a paper tank and I don't build paper tanks.
The kit looks sweet though.

Saddest thing about not getting to build it for 20yrs is that the decals don't last forever.
