      Thanks for all your feedback, guys!

      @simon: thanks, my friend, IΒ΄ll try somethig different next time. I am not that interested in guns - things like these belongs in a museum ( although the mere choice is a typical Freudian lapse - I hope it doesnΒ΄t make me a trigger happy nut after all πŸ˜„ )
      @Bryan K: it was modeled after the gun displayed at the Barcelona museum.

        I'm glad we don't go hunting together. I would hate to carry your ammunition.

                But I have been working on and off for about a year, mostly because of the HD failure 😒

                            I am finally getting around to looking at your model closely.

                            😲

                            You must have one of these things in your back yard for reference. The detail is amazing!

                              Thanks. I intend to simplify those tiny parts, because they are "spares" from my previous models - I guess that chain links for instance, could have far less segments.
                              What do you think?

                              Hehe, no, I used walkaround pics from the military museum of Montjuic in Barcelona and the Naval Museum in Tigre, Argentina as a reference.
                              Plus some of my own taken at Vierville-sur-Mer & Arromanches couple of years ago during my trip to Normandy.

                                      If you guys combined forces you would have the ultimate in military-geekdom (I mean that with absolute respect): the helo-mounted 88! I'm sure Jerry Bruckheimer would drool at the thought of it...

                                        I never thought of that - an eclectic approach indeed! πŸ˜„
