1/16 WCP leFH18-40 German WW2 Light Field Howitzer

Post by Will01Capri »

Hello
Had a spare few hours last weekend and I needed to think about something else other than the 251 as I am still awaiting parts to arrive.
Decided to model up a leFH18/40
This is a German Light Field Howitzer that was developed to be sat on top of a Pak40 chassis
Funnily enough I have already done a Pak40, so this was a little easier model to put up in CAD, well it didn’t work out that way as this thing has like a million rivets and I wanted to make sure I get as many details as possible

Yes its green, but it will be in red oxide soon after I finished tweaking some bits
Same similar features as my Pak40 and this also has a brass barrel.
At some point I will get some tyres printed for it aswell, but it stands tall and its going to pack a punch with that 10.5cm gun

Enjoy

I hadn't planned on doing this model at any point, but it was a nice thing to just add in.
Right i best get back to the 251, Willys Jeep & the 88

Trouble for you is that whenever you post something new, people want to own one as well. The only way to stop that is if you post the ones that didn't work and just keep the successful version to yourself! ;D

Silversurfer1947 is exactly right! :D

Cheers,

P.S. the leFH18-40 is awesome!

Morning
I got some tyres delivered yesterday and just couldn't help myself and played with them and fitted to some of the new models.
I think you will agree, this leFH comes to life with its new shoes :)
