Swiss Hetzer G13
Description
After the Second World War Switzerland purchased 158 modified Hetzers, known as the G13 in Switzerland. This is a remix of SSBN506's Hetzer, itself based on a Bergman model. Changes include: -a muzzle break, borrowed from TigerAce1945's Panzer IV pack -a new redesigned engine deck and exhaust (G13s had a diesel installed in 1945) -new stowage, including wheels and tracks extracted from SSBN506's model and a new box. -removed turret MG and rebuilt hatch -a new sight, which for some really annoying reason printed fine in 1/144 but not in 1/72 -new headlight -new telephone box on the rear -gun and mantelet lowered down (I think it was too high on the original) Likely some other details I've forgotten, but it is still a variation on work done by others. There's 4 versions of the file, a .3mf in 1/100 and .stls in 1/285, 1/144 and 1/72. The Bergman heritage is clear as it prints fine in all 3 scales, although a thicker gun barrel would be useful for microarmour gaming. The photo of a real tank is a public domain image from Sandstein on Wikipedia, shot at the Army Days 2006 (Heerestage 2006) in Thun.
