Thanks guys :) today hopefully put the crew in place and weather them a little to.

Thanks Ron and Dave :)
I had to carve away some of the bricks and plaster inside where the gunners foot were supposed to be, so now i'm busy fixing that so it will look the same as the rest....
Soon time to dicide what base to use for it, wish i had a round one that would look nice i think :)
 
Here is some more pics, on the first ones you see the crew testfitted and the place where i had to carve out space for the gunners foot :blush:

I also managed to make a round wooden baseplate, it took some time and some not so nice words.... :vmad
but it came out fine in the end (all fingers intact and no bleeding :dance )

How cool can it get?

All it needs is sound when finished and it would be very believable Mats. (y)

Great work

Crew glued in place and i filled up around their feets with sand, waiting for that to dry and then it will be painted.
Also glued the smokestack to the wood base, just need to add some wood trim around the lower part of the smokestack.

Mats, I'm thinking more clutter in the bottom, and shell casings? The colors and depth are great, the sand is just a little stark right now. Really looks fantastic! :notworthy
 
MP the sand will be painted in brick colours and ofcourse will there be alot of shellcasings! :)
And some ammo-boxes (must order those....)
Thanks for the feedback that's always apeciated :)

Here MP, i put some rubble underneath the gun, nothing around where the crew will be moving around (there it will be empty shells instead :D
