P43	Scratch Built, 1/35 scale
by Nicola Del Bono

Description

Here are five shots of my P43 model.

It is entirely scratch-built with the sole exceptions of the wheels (adapted from a P40 Criel kit) and tracks (created modifying Panther D dragon magic tracks).

This is an Italian 'paper-panzer', whose project dates back to April 1943.

The Armistice of 8 September 1943 put an end to this 'Italian Heavy tank' project.

The turned machined 90/53 metal barrel was made by my friend Stefano Biavati
