Krupp 21cm Morser 10/16

It's been snowing all day, and I wanted something not too big to do today, so I started this beast of a gun. 

This is my second Takom kit, and it is a very nice kit. The fit is great, no flash or anything like that. Even the PE parts went together without any trouble.  

 

The "loader" I do not know the actual technical term of this part of the gun, but it was very difficult and fiddly. I got it on, but its a little crooked.  

Also difficult were the braces that hold on the shield. Once again I finally got it together, but it took a long time of dry fitting and messing around with this part.  

Even though there were a few difficult parts, I thoroughly enjoyed building this gun. It only took me about 5 hours to complete. I loved these wheels, and the whole gun looks pretty impressive.  

 

 

 

 

Just primed this with Mr. Finishing Surfacer 1500. I really like the way this primer works. Normally i have been using Migg One Shot and I have been very happy with that primer, but this is much nicer to spray. 

I just started using this primer, and I love it. It stinks to high hell, but it is very easy to use, and gives you a great surface to work with. I was using Migg One Shot primer up until now.  

This is my first attempt painting this type of camo scheme. I did it by hand. I used Tamiya Dark Green, and Red Brown, with Flat Black boarders. I like the way it came out.  

 

I know this is not the right paint scheme for the Canadian capturing markings, but I thought it was to cool of a look to not put on the graffiti decal.
