Thank you for looking. Suggestions are always welcome. I have another kit in my stash to start and it will be a bit different finish, but lessons learned from building this one will help.

Album info
1/72 scale version of the "Karl-Gerät" (040/041) (German literally "Karl-device"), also known as Mörser Karl (this one named Thor), was a World War II German self-propelled siege mortar (Mörser) designed and built by Rheinmetall. Its heaviest munition was a 60 cm (24 in) diameter, 2,170 kg (4,780 lb) shell, and the range for its lightest shell of 1,250 kg (2,760 lb) was just over 10 km (6.2 mi). Each gun had to be accompanied by a crane, a two-piece heavy transport set of railcars, and several modified tanks to carry shells.
