Title: 1/35 scale German K.Flak 7.7cm L/27
Post by: gedmundson on January 18, 2022, 11:21:59 PM

Good day folks, I've recently completed a 3D printed model of the WW1 German K.Flak 7.7cm L/27 in 1/35 scale. The kit was produced by St. George Model, along with two of the figures (which are also 3D printed), the Chauffeur, and the officer with the field glasses. Although this was a limited production run, I believe that Yury Morozov is producing more of these kits after recently seeing a message on FaceBook (through which he advertises and sells them).
Cheers,
Gary

Fantastic as always- very tempting but from memory quite expensive for an AFV…. how was the quality of this 3d kit? Cheers Matt

Yes Matt - this was extraordinarily expensive, with PayPal fees and shipping cost added to the high price. But, it was a one-of kit that I really liked the look of. The fit and detail of the kit was amazing. But the printed resin itself was very challenging to work with because it was so brittle. Trying to drill holes and trim parts had the resin cracking at times. Very unforgiving. Some warping was also difficult to deal with. I'm doing a write-up for Model Military International soon.

Cheers,
Gary
