very nice combo,Ian,will look forward to this one

good luck

do you have it all planned out for your setting,

[Guest]

Hi Monica nice to have you along, I`m thinking of either on or two settings, one is going to be simple both sat along side a road all loaded up, or the gun in firing position with a crew with the Sdkfz7 parked up, again all loaded up with gear

Saying that, I`ll probably change my mind tomorrow

A nice combo Tommy. And that is one big gun,

this should take you a while, looks like a lot of bits there!

[Guest]

Your not wrong Paul, I`m having second thoughts now

Your not wrong Paul, I`m having second thoughts now

dont chicken out now...youve teased us with the pictures! :P crack on!

[Guest]

No fear of that now I must be a sucker for punishment going to post some other pics tomorrow of another pair I`m planning of building for this SIG

[Guest]

Got a start on this one, started with the carriage and so far have come across one or two problems with the location of certain items, the locating holes need to be opened a little or other wise you will struggle to fix the parts together, apart from this, its going together OK, will update as the build gets going.

any start is a good start,just take your time,and should be fine,


do like the looks of that barrel,

[Guest]

Thanks Monica

Little update on the Sk 18, started the carriage and wheels as well as the gun craddle and gun itself, decided to opt for the alu barrel rather than the plastic one as not only does it look better but there are no join lines to have to clean up

this is looking good i do real like the look off it,


nice detail as well,and why spend so much time cleaning up when that barrel looks so much better,

[Guest]

Thanks Mon, the barrel looks great, had a few problems getting it to glue but other than that, it is much better than the plastic barrel
