need help with T-34 howitzer turret

Post by Silk »

Hi guys, I hope you can help me,

I love big Guns especially my KV-2 Big Tower, now I’ve got a T-34 from WSN, and I thought damn why the Russians haven’t build in there a “BIG” gun in it.

After two days I had the answer they have just planned it, like this one:

Here on this Homepage you can see more details and some blue prints of it, just scroll down to “Drawingtable Vehicles” there are two Versions one with D and one with U11 Howitzer.

Guys what do you think would the first turret easy to made? Or maybe would someone build me one?

Just the Turret, the details can I make maybe myself.

Best regards, and sorry for my bad English

I think you can get the KV-2 turret separately and that would be a good one to start with. It looks like you will have to cut down the turret at the bottom a bit and a slight mod to the mantlet and the barrel. Funny enough I have never seen this one anywhere. Interesting.

You will also have to worry about the turret ring size as the KV-2 turret out there is for the HL KV-1 and not the WSN T35/85........
