What if units.

Good point. Still it wouldn't make a good MBT because as you said it is an SPG.

Here is a link with some material on the E series
http://www.achtungpanzer.com/pz9.htm#eseries

By using the info provided and a Maus icon you should be able to model the E100 in fairly accurate manner.A
Panther F icon should be good enough for the E50, but for the data you will have to to make some speculation on the basis of the Panther II.I guess that with some Marder icons and some speculation some of the lighter tank destroyers could be modeled.

Here is also a link on the E25, although no icon will be a perfect match.

The E-100 I have already modelled. The E-50 I have also modelled using a Tiger II B chasis and an edited Panther F turret.

I could post the chasis of the E-100 up, if you like. It was one of my first.

Just so you anyone looking for done shps does not waste their time. This file and the next are not what you are looking for. This file and the next is only a template. The third set of files entitled "Export" is however full of units (mostly E series and some German engineering leopards thrown in for good measure).

These are the units I would like you guys to have a look at. Both are AA vehicles.

I tried to create the turrets, the chasis were no problem, but both caused me some major problems especialy the Panther variant turret, which is a curious shape and one I am not accustomned to.

The second one, an E-100 AA variant is difficult also because of the double barrel setup.

Here is the second the Panther variant.

I am working on the Bueffel myself. Converting a Panther chasis and a Puma turret.

May I just say that the above attachments, the ones before this message, are not, I repeat not, the units I tried to work on. They are the templates I used for the turrets!

If you want some unit work, I will post it up here. Feedback and your own shots at making those damn turrets would be really appreciated.

Inside you shall hopefully find: an E-100, an E-90 (75), a series of engineering leopards, 2 SdKfz 251s (experimental variety similar to those on the linked website), an E-50 (Big Panther II) and a Loewe I tank (A very grey precursor to the Tiger II B).
