Thanks Mr Mitch, it looks a lot more variable in natural light. I will try to get pics outside asap.

Like the bicycle!

Cheers Mr Lav, it is a bit racy like a small JP !
The bicycle is an interesting stowage item but it was very disproportionate for the result to the effort that went into it to get it and paint it
I did want to remove the stick grenade box off it, but the nature of the print material meant that as soon as I touched it with the cutting disc, the frame broke just in front of the box.
So I abandoned the job

Tell ya what, as you had such a hit with the slogan for the 152, care to have a shot at a suitable one for this ??

I can have a go

Other than maybe a suitable slogan to add on the Casemate, it’s done.
The bike is secured, tools shoved in the box, ready to get on with the final effort into Berlin…………. So close yet still far away…………

The bike sits ok with the front wheel supported by the ammo crate, used embroidery thread lightly washed for the rope, Mr Frankie gave me that tip and it’s really a good scale look for rope.
A crew man or two will be a definite for this later, and Taigen metal tracks too.

Thanks again to Mr Raminator for the hard work getting the conversion done to such a high level and for deciding to part with it

Does it still spell the same in all capital letters ?
thats a good one but going to be a mission to freehand

Good question! I should imagine so

In capitals it looks different. But that could be using one of a dozen different translators I had a go at.
What does your one look like in capitals ?

"[T]hats a good one but going to be a mission to freehand." Rad did some Russian stencils for me: he even checked the slogan and corrected it some. Then he provided two different type styles: one in block caps. and the other in a script.

Mine comes out the same in caps - not sure what you did lol
