discussion SU 152 S P GUN 1 72 scale dio.

[bazers]

Hi guys latest1 72 scale model dio depicting a Russian s p gun making its way into Germany but there are still some die hard resistance around the corner.
The su 152 is a zvelda kit and is very nice the building is hand made from foam with detail etched into it and it took longer than the whole model.The kubelwagen is from s-models and good detail for its size.( enjoyed opening doors and wrecking it )
Figures are Pegasus holding panzerfausts they are painted as Volkstrum members ( the armband is not painted very well !)
PS cant claim for idea as it was seen in book.

Hi Barry
That is excellent. Really tells the story. Being braille scale makes it even more impressive.

Very, very nice Barry.
Excellent idea and finished model. All coupled with great pictures.

The foam building might have taken some time, but it's yours and there is no other like it in the whole wide world! And far more satisfying than using bought stuff - and a whole lot better too....

Top build!
Ron

Hi Barry,

Really impressed with this dio. Looks like Zvezda have done a nice job with the 152 as have you.
Shame the Kuble got destroyed but it fits the scene perfectly.....I’d be very happy with that if it where mine.

.......lend lease fuelcan:rolling:.

Even better. Tell 'em the Kubelwagen was a survivor from the earlier Ardenne Offensive and when it was there the crew came across an abandoned U.S. fuel dump and stocked up....

They can't argue with that one, Barry.....or can they?!...:smiling4:

Stunning work Barry. Its a real pleasure to see your work again. How long did it take??

 

[bazers]

Sorry Steve only just seen your post. about six weeks the building took a long time.
