Aww nuts! now I know what I did wrong with the E100, I used the tiger III hull instead of doing a new one (they look identical except the length on the E100 is much greater). I will update as soon as possible but I'm really busy with school right now so no promises.

MitcheLL300, thats actually the source sheet that got me started (the one with all the tanks). I have noticed though that they aren't 100% accurate in terms of size comparison but at SB scale it doesn't make a difference so it is actually a great source.

Ok here is the E-100 again only corrected (I will update the other drawings when I have time).

From the left:
E-100 with a 128mm gun and 75mm secondary
E-100 with a 128mm gun (Krupp turret)
E-100 with a Maus turret (Henschel) with either a 150mm (shown) or 170mm gun with a 75mm secondary

I did the first turret (from the left) free hand since I couldn't find any line drawings of it so it may be slightly off.

**Also, I've found a line drawing for the P1500-Monster that looks pretty accurate (considering no one really knows exactly what it was supposed to look like) so I may do it too once I sort out some scale and chassis issues.

Ok so, after a rather long break due to exams, here are some German self propelled guns:

From the left:
Hummel (150mm Howitzer 5.9in)
Wesp (105mm Howitzer 4in)
sIG 33 I (Panzer I with 150mm Howitzer 5.9in)
Panzerwerfer
Strumtiger
Brummbar (150mm mortar)
Grill 10 (88mm flack)
Flackpanzer4 Ostwind (1x 37mm flack)
Flackpanzer4 Mobelwagen (1x 37mm flack)
Flackpanzer4 Wirbelwind (4x 20mm flack)
Kugelblitz (2x 30mm flack)

I need to update the hummel 150mm howitzer and I just realized I used the wrong halftrack for the Panzerwefer. The one I did is an actual German SPG but it uses a French chassis and the Panzerwefer doesn't I just mixed up the names. I will update soon.

German tank destroyers, British armored cars and American tanks will be next.

Ok so I lied again. I am skipping the american tanks again (still not finished) and moving on to something different. I have finally finished most of Hobart`s funnies and I would like some input.
Reference drawings are very difficult to come by for some of these so there may be a few errors.

I don`t think I`ll start naming them until I have the whole bunch finished. Comments, critiques are welcome.
Also, I put in a few vehicles that I`m not sure should be included. Does anyone know where I can find a list of all the Hobart Funnies or simply british AVRSs from WWII? Wikipedia is not much help.

Wow, this is great,

Fantastic detail, but I like specialy the Sherman Crab mine-clearing tank and the other of the right side.

Don't forget to show the 318 vehicles. ;)

Hmmm...I was wondering why I haven't seen a '42 Sherman yet!
