Fixed it for you, yep. :joy:

I will have to pause the work today on the emplacement to hopefully finish some touches on the 5” gun for a club meeting tomorrow. Might throw some paint on the 3.7 gun if I have time.

The CSM figure shipped so I should have it by next weekend hopefully.

Threw some Tamiya XF-66 light grey on the 3.7 cm gun.


I grabbed the wrong sized block to black prime, so next time I will use the larger block to display the gun on.

A side by side comparison.

I think I will try some black primer at least around the bolts on the 5.7 cm gun but not sure. I kinda like the green grey look but might have too prime as the locker will be a different material and color so it will look different.

Next up for 3.7 gun is to gloss coat, try some Tamiya panel liner around the details, flat coat and then some light dust weathering. I think I will also add a small track bracket to set the gun on.

Interesting idea and those turrets are pretty neat, although I can’t imagine being stuck in one
I look forward to seeing how this develops.

The figure arrived. CSM gives you two figure heads, with and without googles.

Some cool images there … did you say yours has an interior Ryan @Tank_1812 or not ?

There is no interior for Venko’s print.

That’s nice that they present you with a great figure and they give you a little head on the side…

To my knowledge they have not released the kit, only announced it.

Yeah, but- AFAIR- Venko said he might CAD one if there’s interest .

Cheers,

Only just come across this…this is the maddest thing I’ve seen in a while. Especially the rolling it up on a carriage bit.

Am I the only one seeing these and hearing (in my head) a metallic voice shouting “Exterminate! Exterminate!”?.. :grin:
