I'll have to try print a T scale version of the Jeep.  hehe.. :trollface:

If you do that, then take a photo of it posed on a head of a thumbtack!   :D

The T version actually has mirrors on the fenders.  It needs a tiny bit of cleanup, really because the primer is so thick..

And @Jesse6669 wins the internet - for now.  Posing a T Scale model on an N scale Model on a dime is serious @DKS level stuff.

I’m sure the N Scale version will stop on a dime but the N and T ones pictured are posed on a US Penny…!

But the DKS version would have working headlights, blinkers, and the steering wheel would turn the wheels!
That is very nice work there, I would be interested in a couple too!

Big thanks @Jesse6669 for making this a reality! 8)

I got mine and I'm amazed at how smooth and detailed the print is!
