Good Morning, Herman!
That's a funny and also amazing story! I just did a quick check for provenance for any fossils like that and the closest thing I find is from China some 25 years ago. Roy Rodgers airport? You guys were lucky to get out alive ( or with your skin ) ;o)

Crazy story Herman!

I have an idea for a diorama, based on what this thread has become. Make a tank or something, rust it all up, then bury it like a fossil!

Will you try it Painless?

Tonight saw the basic kit completed. I made the push to finish the last four steps, 10 - 13. Now I can detail and add a working tow mount to the field piece then primer\paint. ;o) A Show-Off thread will be on the way soon along with a video of the gun under tow. Pics: ( Click to Enlarge )

Would I be right in saying that these are the type of weapons that Easy Company destroyed on D-day ?

Lovely work.

Unfortunately Herman, it is not. The guns used at Brecourt Manor were 105mm howitzers.

Good Morning!
Thanks for looking in, Gentlemen. More fun to follow!

Good evening all!
My hands were ready for business again so I undertook some detailing on the gun tonight. I had pored over online pics of the early versions of the field piece and used a few of the ideas that I found. After this, I only have the metal tow point to install. After that, it's Paint Time!

Very nice indeed. I like that alot, i wonder if there are any more kits out there?
