Comments welcome.
Thanks all.

Well constructed, nicely painted, and suttle weathering, great work.

Really like the Tiger! But ? what is the artillery piece called, I have never seen one of those I think.

thxs,
John

First Thanks Darren and John now the answer.
8" howitzer M-115 from AFV Club is the answer

Both look good. Nicely constructed and weathered. My only suggestion is to put some groundwork under them. They would look much better if presented in their element.

Jeff -

Looking good, like your Tiger, came out great! Weathering and finish looks fantastic as well, thanks for sharing your photos.

Cheers -

First Gino working on that Idea .

Thanks for the input also as you are an Artillery Person.

Ever had a chance to shoot one of these old guys Gino M-115 ?

Neil well Zim was done with that great Cav Zim can't be beat by far for us challenged zim folks.
Plaque is Aluminum from a trophy shop about 7 dollars I think.

Thanks also.

Finally Bob yep would be nice to have them with you but then the cabinet would be lonely.



Thanks also.

Unfortunately, no. They were long out of service when I came in. The closest I have fired is an M110A2 SP, which used the same 8", 240mm gun and cradle. It was on its way out when I first came in as well and they are now all museum pieces too.

I remember all to well those M110's In Korea 1977.
Saturday morning around zero dark thirty.
Bang then another Bang thought we were under attack after falling out of bed in the hooch and grabbing my pants and shoes and heading out the door to run to post and grab my deuce and a half.
I get outside and what do I see two ROK Army ones across the road firing down range I did stay and watch them throw two more rounds down range back to bed and no the War is not on.
A lot of respect for them things as would not want to be on the other side when they come raining down on you.

I did think the hooch was going to fall down windows shaking and glass rattling building shaking.
BTW the women I was with did become my wife and still is 30 years latter.

Good memories
