Mauser WTP I : The Armory Shelf

This was another requested model — and one of the most challenging so far due to the extremely limited historical references available. Reliable documentation on this piece is scarce, and it hasn’t been covered by Forgotten Weapons, C&Rsenal, or other major channels, which made the research and reconstruction process significantly more demanding and time-consuming.

Because of these limitations, the model was rebuilt piece by piece with a strong focus on mechanical logic, functional realism, and historical accuracy.

To the best of my knowledge, this is the most accurate and complete Mauser WTP Mark I model created to date, comparable in detail and research depth to my previous Gasser, Bodeo, and Sauer 1913 projects — be sure to check those out as well.

Notes:

For best results, always exclude screw threads using the support painting feature. Removing supports from threaded areas can be difficult, especially on small diameters. Additionally, orient detailed parts along the Z-axis for cleaner results and easier post-processing.
