Hi thanks to all who looked in and left comments much appreciated. Done bit more on this.done more painting, the barrel and one gun support girder done. Had bit of fit issue with lifts at back they sat to high.so I removed the first 2 fillets, this made it sit better but low.so added plasticard to bring it to right level. The pic was taken before I sanded them in properly. The rest the loading platform built up.the 8 ton halftrack there for scale. Also made up the control cabin which fits to underside of loading platform. Cheers mick. BigGrin

That is looking really good.

Was watching a programme the other day about some of the strange weapons in Germany during ww2 and this one was shown.

Hope it continues well.
Happy Modelling

Looking really good, loving the paintwork. Hard to believe something this size actually existed.
Man he took his time in the sun
Had a dream to understand
A single grain of sand
He gave birth to poetry
But one day will cease to be
Greet the last light of the library...We were here!
