Thanks gents Progress of a sort  001 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr I'm getting to the point of severe Dragonitis with the 20mm assembly. It requires many glue and let dry steps and is gonna be difficult to paint. Moreover, it don't fit over well  002 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr The spent case catcher that Dragon seems so proud of may not be included on this if I can't figure out a way to bend PE around this spindly little thing, which is made up of three plastic parts and four PE parts. Dragon pre-forms some of the PE, but they don't do a very good job of it.  003 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr We'll see what shakes out Regards, Mark |

More progress. The 20 mm done, as vile and techy an assembly as Dragon has ever dreamed up. The spent cartridge container went to pieces under the attempt to bend the PE as I more or less expected. Perhaps I'll try to scratch one out of wire that'll be a bit more durable  007 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr How I'll probably display it. Don't know if I'll include figures with this one  008 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr Regards, Mark |

I like option #1... am sure you still can fit few figures in there. Less vacant space the better!

Haven't been able to catch up on this one for a while, looks like you're banging it out in style Mark! Figures give it a nice dynamic feel...you can almost hear the Jabo's engine in the dive!  |

Thanks Leon Had to escape for awhile, ended up in Wyoming's Bighorn mountains  015 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr How we get around when not on foot  016 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr The Flakpanzer how it'll be displayed. I'll add a bit of dirt once on base  038 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr  039 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr Close to coming together now. Wonder what happened to my partner on this Regards, Mark |
