Very nice Tony but the swordfish has only two wheels and tyres to paint. How many was it the Morser had 50 something.....

 

[Guest]

Airbrushing comes in handy for the wheels.

[Guest]

Tony,

It sort of really ugly...........but beautiful ............... You are well on the way, I'd like to see it when it's finished............... and that one is the later one I think. Either number 4 or 5 of those built..........The one I have is the earlier one ...... Guns 1 to 3 ......

Peter

 

[Guest]

Guns 1 & 2 had 8 wheels for the tracks............. Guns 3, 4 & 5 had 11 wheels and a wider track

The guns apparently had names .............. Adam, Eva, Karl, Thor, Loki & Zui

 

[Guest]

I think I'll build the ugly one .....and I've just bought the ........... Munitionsschlepper Pz.Kpfw ...............to go with it.

Cheers to All

I may well look at the transporter................. I've already got a Munitionsschlepper Aus D/E to go with the version of the Karl I have (although I've asked santa to bring me another on as apparently each Karl had 2 in support) ................ Maybe I'll make a Diorama.............. and knock "Seven Bells" out of the Maginot Line or Sebastopol or Grimsby (oh no yhey didn't get there did they.....) .....................

I always think it is a good idea to do something as different as possible from the last one you made. That keeps everything interesting and exciting.

 

[Guest]

I've just been reading up on this thing............... It fired a 60cm (24in) ...... 2,170 kg (4,800 lb) projectile .............. 4,320 mtrs (4,720 yd)...........

............ That's like welding a couple of hatchback cars together and throwing them ................ four kilometres !!!!!!!
