I'll get some more pictures up, later today, but basically this is something that I've always wanted and finally got the chance to have.
I printed this myself, after purchasing the files. I have to admit, these are bloody amazing files. I had a few hiccups during printing, and this was narrowed down to a corrupt flash drive. I can't wait to get this one done and on the shelf.

I shall, Martin. Just need to get back in the cave and take some. I can tell you that the chassis is very good. It lines up almost flawless.

@martin. I bought some ABS-like, transparent resin, so I could use it for clear parts. What you see is, 2mm thick clear. I've not tried it any thinner, but for my taste, it's not good enough to use as glass for cab windows, etc? However, I'll give it a try, soon, just for a sample. Even i can be wrong, sometimes?

You're not wrong, you tried something new that didn't work out as hoped. No shame in that!

How have I missed this?
Wow Bozzer that is awesome. I agree with Martin it does look strange in that colour. At first glance I thought it was bread dough!

The original mistake was how I orientated the print. Also, I cured it in my machine. On the second attempt, I cured it slowly by sunlight and started assembly before it was fully cured. That turned out better, because I was able to get a better joint and the Super Glue held it better. Still a little filling, but a much better result. My plan is to light sand everywhere, then apply a filler/primer. I need to source this, but I will.
You boys will appreciate this....
The wife walked into the new cave, and stopped talking!
She's now aware of the stash that I've accumulated, during her absence. She said that I must have spent a lot, on kits?
I told her that they're cheaper than hookers!
When the swelling goes down, from my black eyes, I'll start modelling again!

Looking great 👍
What is it made from??
I've never come across a build like this??

Taken out of context 'starting modelling again' doesn't sound much better 🤪

Lol, she was cool with it really.
@Mr D. This is an ABS-like, clear resin and printed on a resin printer. It's the largest resin build, I've done, to date.

I have been out of the loop as my summer has been very busy. I shall be very interested how this comes along. I can afford a 3D printer, I simply do not have the space for one.

Wow, that's some tedious work needed for the landing gear. Have you considered creating your own mold to copy the Fw-189/Hs-126 wheels? Just out of curiosity did it actually use the same wheels as these aircraft mentioned? I don't have the Mach 2 kit YET but I did pick up the AP Modely canopy while I still could. The owner of the company has decided to focus exclusively on TT-Gauge model train stuff but thankfully he still had some old stock on hand for a bunch of canopies with additional bits & bobs I wanted to snag. (Thank goodness for his Fujimi E14Y Glen set; That two piece cowling, that goes right across the "cylinder bumps," reminded me of the Italeri B-25H/J nightmare.)
I see you have a couple of reference books on the type - are there any decent images of this weird set of wings innards contained therein?

The millipede gear was my main holdup on this project. That and I had to wait a decade for my skills to catch up to my ambitions. But they now have, so this project may move up the list. 3D design and printing would be great but I don't do that, so scratching one set of two wheels and their gear and casting resin copies will be my way. Lets hope someone in Ukraine drops a new tool first! Yes, there are not only images and drawings but an excellent 1/15 scratchbuilt model by Gunter Sengfelder with many operating features, including flaps, in both books. Thank goodness I have already glued the wings together so I am no longer tempted to replicate all that structure!
Search for: ARADO Ar 232 „TATZELWURM" – der erste Kampfzonen-Transporter der Welt for a set of 2 articles (in German) with good pictures. As to the wheels, I have compiled a pdf of interchangeable Luftwaffe wheels based on Sengfelders German Landing Gear book. Of course, the hub size and design often changes, but it has proved an excellent resource for measuring kit and aftermarket wheels, and finding useful swaps (including across scales if you're clever with math!). I can share it with you if you provide a way. I once owned two (real) 700x175 smooth Fw190 tires and inner tubes, and found from that list that they may have been used on the Ta152H or even a Me163 takeoff trolley- and were the planned tires for the Ta183 jet.

As I haven't seen/handled the kit personally I can't really say much about the parts that Mach 2 provides for it - though I know they are extremely rudimentary judging by those I do have. However with how they are the dominant feature behind this aircraft I would imagine you'd absolutely want to do them right. I have never cast my own resin parts, I've read about it so I have the theory, just not the practical experience. Mars Models released some graphics for a new Tatzelwurm, but an Ar-232A-0 in 2018, as you can see under the topic Arado Ar 232, but there's been no news on it since to my knowledge.
Wow, a 1/15 scale model of the Tatzelwurm?! That's some crazy dedication there & what I really want to know is where he keeps it, his garage, a storage shed, a barn or perhaps he rents some hangar space? Sheesh! lol I found an image of a Mach 2 Ar-232 with the flaps deployed like you mentioned. This looks real similar to modern flaps used in commercial aviation to my eyes! That would've looked pretty interesting if you're into displaying your birds "extra dirty." (I've never dropped the flaps on one of my builds & have only built two aircraft models with the gear retracted for a ceiling display when I was far younger.) If you wanna take a look at this gent's work here's the address;

As for those articles, they are FANTASTIC! Thank you very much for pointing me in this direction! They have been saved & cataloged for when I get around to that project! 😉 I'll send you a private message regarding the file you were talking about, because that'd be real handy, I wish there was something of similar comparison for British & American aircraft for WW2. (I mean, I know the Hellcat & Corsair used the same main wheels - but that's all I know.)

Merci, Juskifo.🙏
I'm pretty sure that I decanted and airbrushed the Tamiya TS cans, TS56 and TS53. The lower fairing red is a decal and the middle fairing red was painted. I think I had to mix a few different reds to achieve a similar shade to the decal red. Can't remember those though!
