Frank...Wow!...that's some manual, thank you so much. I'm trying to build this one box stock, aside from replacing
the chain and adding some weld beads. Thought it would be a nice diversion from my ultra-tedious half track build.
But I'm sure I'll need it sometime, because I bought two!

Good evening, kind gents !
After some last touching up - broke somethings in the weathering proces - and a dot of paint here and there, Ceasar's ready to
go on the catwalk before going into his final resting place, a diorama that is, not the dust bin !
Maybe I didn't emphasize enough the quality of the DRAGON kit, it is exquisite. As I said before I'm not into artillery at all but I've
enjoyed building this kit enormously and was able to find a lot of reference on the net to make this build, without knowing
anything on the subject at all.
And here he is, hope you likes !
Look Mummy, there's an airplane up in the sky !
Up to the next phase: finishing that base and getting him up there, the little show off !

Very nice 88 Frank, great parting shot with the background!
I'm with you on the artillery build, I did my 88 and really enjoyed it, lots of stuff you can tinker with building these things.

That is so nice- I built mine without the shield, good to see one with the full rig. An excellent kit that was very easy to build. I'm falling in love with the big guns.
@ James: Thank you very much for the compliment ! Very much appreciated.
@ Ron: You always motivate me with your kind replies, thanks !
@ MP: Thank you for the nice words, MP ! I'm also planning on building some Pak gun or whatever in the near future, but first
there's the Fall Figure Festival, I hope I make it before the closing date. I'm not the fastest modeler on the planet ! :S
@ Luiz: Too much honour, kind gentleman ! It means alot to get such a great compliment from you, thanks !
@ Kryptos: Really enjoyed the build and top marks for Dragon on this one. Thanks !

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
I laughed a lot on that one....
But Mate, tell me the true...
this it's a real picture right???
WONDERFULL!!!!!
Hi Arturius,
So glad you liked the picture, of course it is a real one. No tricks here !
To proof it I'll show you the ingredients:
1 - A Flak
2- A picture of a landscape downloaded from the internet and printed on regular printing paper.
Put the picture behind the model, set up your camera at the right angle and you've got yourself a nice picture. Try it, it's real
fun.
I'm not an expert at all and to be frank I like the picture but if you look at it close you can tell there's something
odd about the perspective !
These are some other background photo's I use:
There was no copyright on the photo's so it's legal to use them, otherwise I'll take my own ones I guess !
Thanks for your nice compliment, Arturius,
