Perfect for Beginner !!!
If you consider yourself a beginner or intermediate this model is perfect for you. There is several smart part but all easy to handle. There is no waterslide decals... maybe because this tank never left the blue prints table. HISTORY OF THE E-50 --- The E-50 Standardpanzer was intended as a standard medium tank, replacing the Pz.Kpfw. V Panther and Tiger I and the conversions based on these tanks. The E-50 hull was to be longer than the Panther; in fact it was practically identical to the King Tiger in overall dimensions except for the glacis plate layout. Compared to these earlier designs however, the amount of drilling and machining involved in producing these standardpanzers was reduced drastically, which would have made them quicker, easier and cheaper to produce, as would the proposed conical spring system replacing their predecessors' complex and costly dual torsion bar system. As indicated by its name, the weight of the E-50 would fall between 50 and 75 tonnes. Its maximum speed was planned as 60 km/h. Only blueprints were made; no production models were produced.
Nice for beginners
Easy kit, bought 2 and built one as the 75mm gun version, the second I built as the 88mm equipped version. For a first kit it is a great build.
