discussion STALINS SLEDGEHAMMER. 1 72 scale dio

[bazers]

This dio depicts soviet army moving in to Berlin with the potent 203 mm howitzer ,the germans knew it as stalins sledgehammer as it was a tremendous bunker buster
.The gun is a diecast model and not that good but cant get a plastic kit in 1 72 scale ,I made buildings and base from hard foam with bricks marked in to it.
any questions welcome.View attachment 277893 View attachment 277894 View attachment 277895 View attachment 277896 View attachment 277897 View attachment 277898 View attachment 277899 View attachment 277900 View attachment 277901
