Started building the howitzer and ... wow ... I've built some Trumpeter kits before but never one with so many small pieces. Sometimes it's hard to figure out where each piece needs to go and I'm amazed the carpet monster was not hungry these days. Hopefully it will stay this way till the end 🙂
For example: the fire-aiming telescope in pic 6 is composed of 14 plastic parts and two PE parts and it's less than 2cm!!! Crazy!!!

Looks good, sadly Soviet artillery is very underrepresented in 1:35th scale.

More progress on the build; not as fast as I would've liked due to the huge amount of (very) small pieces and PE. It truly is an eye-straining project 🙂, but I'm actually pleased with it so far.

Finally the build is done, including the limber. Despite some hair-pulling moments the built kit is quite lovely.
I think my next build is going to be a Tamiya kit, I need something easy 🙂

Hallo, did you want to have set of Ya-12 + limber + 122 M30? If yes, you have the limber wrong. this drawbar is designed for horse drawn.

It should be short like this: [img1]
But no worry about that! just cut long segment for horses off!

Hi Vitek, yes, I know, I wanted to build it fully just for the picture. The limber section designed for horse carriage is detachable, the nail that is holding it is not glued down (even the instructions tell you this), so for YA-12 it will be detached.
I've attached a picture with it detached.
