1/9th Scale Panzerfaust

[rbminis]

Here is another one of my creations. It is made from scratch from brass tube, solid brass and brass sheet. The explosive head is made from two pieces of solid brass turned on my lathe and later assembled. The trigger/ range finder is made from sheet and solid brass bent, shaped and soldered by me. It is also fully functional with a removable pin, and spring loaded trigger. The only thing that is not complete is the decaling.
I hope you like it.

Very neat bit of work.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Ade!
I like the challenge of trying to make something that does not exist already.

I like it. A skilful bit of craftsmanship there. I'm sure you could easily make a 1/1 scale one!

Cleverly done Ralph !

Very nice! What are the dimensions? Can you take a shot next to a lighter or matchbox etc?

[talltom]

very nice looks really good (im sure it would be much easier to make it 1:1 )

Looks really good! I knew this was good when I saw rbminis as the thread starter

I am also thinking of starting to build scale models, might start off something easy.

You seem to be very talented and skillful. I wish I could make stuff like that But there is no chance that I could do it. But that's the reason why I appreciate to look at the replics of other people.
I'm especially impressed because of the little details. I bet most people wouldn't pay attention to this.
