Completed; Hell From above "Cafe"

Very nicely done Jim, it has that very realistic feel of wartime, warts & all.

The 88 mounted on the KV chassis is excellent as are the figures. I recognise a few of them from the Tamiya Flakvierling crew & German soldiers at rest.

Thanks Patrick, I did see an old pic years ago of such a conversion and it stuck with me until I finally scratched up one, glad you like it......Jim

I did notice Jim, but thought it polite for me not to mention my involvement - But now you have, it was a pleasure to help......

What's next from you, any plans?

Hard to say Ron, I do have my other two FLAK conversions to roll out, sans base. Since they are 90% complete I will have to start dreaming up another dio, but as of now I haven't
the foggiest what it might be I have come to the conclusion that all future dios will be of smallish dimensions, vignettes if you will, no bigger than this one about.
Space limitations and the Missus demand it

Oh my! That is superb. I'm having a wee break, recovering from a nasty illness and other stuff, but I have started my LRDG dio - seeing this has given my mojo a nudge. Nice one Jim!

Superb, Jim. What's the hardware? - looks like an 88 mounted on a Russian tank superstructure, but I'm no expert.

Thanks Doug, you're right, it's an ancient Tamiya kit (the 88) as a matter of fact so is the KV1 chassis and a few did actually exist

[grumpa]

Jim that is absolutely brilliant mate as said above the level of detailing is something else.

Thanks so much Terry, greatly appreciated......Jim
