Very nice,the paintwork looks really good.Although I'm still heading towards anodising my parts I've got to sit on my hands to stop me painting it in snow camouflage to go with my unstarted Tiger build.

Love the camo scheme! British guns unfortunately do not have such exciting patterns.......
One point however: the shell shown is the 88x571 as used by the Flak 18/36 and the Tiger I, the Pak 43 fired the 88x822 shell also used by the Tiger II which is considerably larger!!

Not sure if these are produced by anyone in this scale (yet). We definitely need more ammo!!

Cheers,

Marcus

Thanks for the positive comments :mrgreen:

I know about the shells, a pity nobody does the correct Pak shells.

At present, the general great unwashed have not twigged at the displays I`ve done :wink:

Perhaps some enterprising individual might cast a few up in resin, if enough of us jump up and down :?: :!:

What do you reckon guys :D

'The Panzer Trap' did some nice Kw.K 43 shells and packing crates both Spreng and Panzer Patronen. I am not sure they are still in business.
Werkstatt 5 does some nice Pak 40 75mm shells, hope they pick up the challenge!!
