Afternoon all After a very hectic few months life has finally settled. Our eldest has finally left home. Yay. Which means we have an empty bedroom. Which is now my workshop
My first build is one ive had for a while but didn'y have the room to build. Revells 1/72 A400m Atlas which i'm converting into a gunship.
She's a big kit. 2 foot square. This is the 5 part tail assembly which is bigger than most kits ive built
The only weapon i've got so far is the artillery piece. The M1098 155mm. I figure as its bigger and newer than a Spectre, all it's weaponry has to be bigger too. The gun is S&S models white metal kit. With a homemade breech guard from fencing wire.
This is its first mock up
And the gun roughly positioned
And finally the most important addition for my faithful accomplice

nice one! Bet you've been tapping your foot impatiently, waiting for your son to move out, so you can get on with this Hope you don't have as many problems with this as the German air force has with the real thing...
