Versuchsflakwagen 8.8cm Flak41 Sonderfahrgestel (Pz.Sfl.IVC)

Art Instructor did a great job breaking up the mono color of them big slab sides. There is a few places with excess brush strokes but all in all a very nice effect

Monstrously cool, and a great weathering job on that monotone prototype finish! The photos will make a great reference point when I build mine! A really cool model--how big is it next to another model, for scale?

It reminds me of a mobile home with a huge cannon sticking out the bathroom, lol!

Again, I find this model much like the 1/16 scale Tiger. Another rush job. If the wheels are covered with that much mud, there should be some shown on the tracks as well. My opinion.

Clint - Thanks for your kind words!

Karl - You're just too humble. I'm sure you can do as good or better without any reference! Thanks for your kind compliments!

doog has said it all,,,cool...cheers....Kenny

Thanks for you kind comments, Kenny!

great work indeed ... here can be found mine as made two decades before :-)  www.facebook.com/photo.php

very nice build. not overly weathered. i have got to get me one of these

Melchoir - thanks for your kind words! You scratch-built that two decades ago? Very well done!

waynec - thanks for your kind compliments! I still have another box of this, ordered by mistake thinking that I didn't have it yet just a few days after the first order. Still wonder whether it can be painted in other colors rather than desert yellow.

hey MM - i can't think of a reason not to do a cool camo and i would camo the insdie of the side and rear "shields since they are visible when in operation. mine just came today but i have sworn off starting any new builds before 01jan14

Camo is a good idea, waynec! But without camo pattern or painting guide it will not be easy. Sworn off building? You may use the mean time 2 months acquiring & stockpiling new kits instead.

Oops I missed this one!!  Art Instructor deserves commendation for an excellent build of a highly unusual vehicle!  Great weathering on that monotone paint job!  I love it!

Thanks for your kind compliments, Ernest! You're going to see six more armors by AI in a moment.

well if there isn't a guide who can say if is correct or not. i will do what i do with towed guns; what theater and season is it, where will i likely be deployed, and if it was my gun how would i paint it.

you misunderstand. i said i wasn't STARTING any new kits for 2 months. i have 5 subs, VOSPER, LCVP, DANA, chinese treasure ship, 1/350 DD and 2 helicopters to finish.

Yes, I did it really two decades ago :-)  But it isn't scratch buildt, it was a resin-kit produced by airmodel / Frank-Modellbau located Albstadt / Germany, part of assembly instruction www.facebook.com
