Now that's good, very good the weathering is amazing Paul

I'm following this with great interest

Thats amazing. Does the kit include crew? I would love a quad AA being "active"

I don't have any crew in my kit...so I don't think so. The academy kit 971 does.

thanks guys, unfortunately it doesn't include a crew but there are a few sets out there for 2cm flak but all in "action" poses so I might try to cobble together a crew from other sources.

cheers

Day off so a bit of progress made...




I'm toying with the idea of a duo with this, it's been a shelf queen since Tomcat I think did one rather well an as a consequence I lost the will

Nice work mate - the wear and tear on the gun assembly is great!

I've not built an Elefant so not guilty on that one! I think Stokesy did one for the winter build so it might have been that one you were thinking of?

[Quax]

@Tomcat64 Thanks Neil and you're right it was Stokesy's Elefant I was thinking of

cheers

Thanks Steve, there's some typical Dragon instructions but it's otherwise ok.
Some more pics, assembly finished, these are fruils recycled from a Jpz iv. Some gloss ,weathering and some touching up yet to come but enough about me..

I'm loving this, she's looking really good Paul

[aur0ra145]

Really nice finish!

[Tomcat64]

That looks great mate! Very nicely done

[Quax]

Many thanks for the nice comments. Calling this done now. The only thing I would consider changing is the awful 'spring' that dragon supply for a tow cable, it kept pinging the clamp off and would only fit with a very sharp bend so copper is the way to go, I took the alternative way that it was lost in the fog of battle...











Cheers and happy New year.
