Takom 1/35 21cm Morser
« on: March 18, 2020, 12:45:09 PM »
Hi folks, just completed the Takom 1/35 scale 21cm Morser. Added some bolt detail and a few extras around the tail end, finished with Tamiya acrylics and some oils and pastels for weathering.
Cheers,
Gary

Thanks edo, yes it will be incorporated into a small vignette with some British infantry over-running the position. I’m currently finishing off the figures right now. Glad you like the camo - it was a practice run for the big Bruno rail gun project I’m also working on 🙂

That looks fantastic!  Looking forward to seeing the finished diorama.

Outstanding model there Gary! I love the paint work and weathering. You have really brought out the best in this kit. I have one in the stash so your model encourages me to get on to mine.

Looking forward to seeing it with the figures in your diorama.

cheers

Thanks to everyone for the kind words - I finally put the finishing touches on the little diorama this afternoon. The figures are from ICM and are finished in Tamiya and Vallejo acrylics. I had to modify this posting since I'd altered the picture size on the host site.
Cheers,
Gary
