Nice work getting the magazine rack squared up like that Scottie...

Nick

Cheers Nick luckily the parts do locate well.

Blimey Scottie, I’m Super impressed with you Photo-etch work, very neat

Thanks Si glad you like it.

See I'm not the only one Paul .

Ha ha thanks John.

Hey Bro,

Please don't touch the paint job, as it's fantastic and so realistic!!! Now, enough of the etch soldering noise and get working on the synchronized recoil action of the barrels so they work when firing/turning the Flakvierling on it's pedestal. You know, like the real McCoy!!!....................................................Gotcha thinking Paul, huh???...

Prost
Allen

Hi Dude, I was thinking about it but decided not to bother as I couldn't get the triggers to work :tongue-out3:

Really a loving build to follow Scottie!

Thanks Mate happy your enjoying it.

Great work both on the trailer and the guns.

Cheers Michael, the work on the trailer was fun and I think it has turned out ok.

Excellent work as always, Paul. Any photo etch I have done always ends up looking as though it has been through a crusher.
John.

John, thanks mate so does mine sometimes.

The flak is done just the base to do and of course paint and weathering. some small additions like hinges and handles. It was hard going as the instructions for the shields are woeful. Still that said I got it together.






The trailer is also now ready for paint.





cheers
Scottie

Just had a catch-up on this build Paul, have thoroughly enjoyed it Thanks for providing the inspiration !

 

[Jack L]

As usual Paul, I have no words. I'm all pleased with myself for adding an extra rivet, and then I see things like this! Absolutely fantastic.

Trailer - you would never question its accuracy if you did not tell us - great inaccurate work by the way....

Jack, very kind of you mate, that's all I used to do as well just try it's easier than you think.

A quick update,
The final bit of assembly is done. just a few tweaks nothing major. Some missing nut detail was added and the adjusting handles were cut out and some rod added to avoid that solid look.





next will be painting and sorting some stowage out.


cheers
