Micro Entry Chris Gutzmer 1:284 E-10 Prototype Panzerjager
I think I got that size about right. Stupid print driver wouldnt let me pick an exact % so I had to print with #sheets to fit on a page. I chose 6 with two pages of parts to the model so its about 3 times smaller than the original... I printed off full size and small for comparison.
I tried printing this on our new color laser printer at work and I am not happy with the result - will reprint at home. Maybe there I can pick an exact %  Here is a pic of the full size build (not done by me) I think my major pain point will be the barrel Chris

Cant wait to see it. It's nice to see you participating in something like this instead of just orchestrating lol

Chris,
If I may suggest, use regular bond paper for the barrel. It's what I use any time I have rolled parts (barrels, landing gear struts, etc). Welcome to the club!

Good choice Chris. I'm sure you plan to get extra points by superdetailing with individual track links - scratchbuilt of course
. For the barrel of my 1/100 R&P Su-100 I peeled a Q-tip shaft down to the appropriate size and wrapped it with the barrel piece (printed on bond paper) just one layer thick. Worked out pretty well. I used the same technique on a 1/100 Panther tank turret with equally good results. One of these days I'll finish the model.

BIG NO on the other stuff - it will hard enough as is I need some help here - I printed at home - MUCH better at 33% - if the original scale is 1/48 whats the new scale? I am dumbfounded by math.... and cant quickly locate my scale converter calculater thingy Chris
