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

              ๐Ÿ˜ฒ

              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...
