Howdy Alan,
"crazy artillery piece..........."?...............Man!, give a guy with a 'Sherman' fixation (you do still have a "Sherman fixation" don't you?.....?....?) an opportunity to rant with the {said in my best Donald Sutherland} 'negative waves' and what does he do?.........casts thunderclouds over all of a person's hard work.........geeeeeez.
Actually Shermie's, I was able to finish my (how did you say it again?) "crazy artillery piece" while I was back on the East Coast (N.J.). I am, as we speak, trying to get my mother to properly pack it and ship it back to me so I can post my finished pictures of the 'Model who would not get done' and complete my part of the "Incoming!!" record books.
Methinks you will like it. That is, since you've been 'straying' as of late.

Howdy Kevin.
You got it buddy. In fact, just for the record, since you are the resident 'Mortar Maggot' expert around these parts, you're the one I'm most worried about impressing......
I think I've done an acceptable job of recreating a rather unique and 'oddball' vehicle all based on a single photograph. And it needs to be said that this single photograph was from a rear 3/4 shot, not straight from the side like our good 'Roo has kindly indicated to us in his recent Article has said is the best angle to 'extrapolate' from...
Suffice to say, my 'zoom-in/zoom-out' button was working overtime!
Anyway, as I said originally, the only portion of the vehicle that is from the kit is the base M113. The entire mortar section of the vehicle is completely scratched. And let me tell you, them's a lotta tubes!!!!
I'll post pics just as soon as I can.
I do have some early and mid production pics of some of the work I did building the bugger stored in my Canon ZoomBrowser if anyone's interested?

Aye Tread... I know that you didn't have much to go by on this multi-tuber... and I wish that I could've done more for you but, in the end, that's what the beauty of this is going to be all about.... the creation of a masterpiece from just about zilch for reference. I eagerly await the results of your creation with an open mind whilst trying to contain any drool. (You do not have to worry about me being critical and that is an order! )
I am soooooooo glad that you've gotten it to this point!! I hope that it ships safely and you bet... I am very much interested in any of your mid-production photos! Either here somewhere or to [email protected].

Well Tread I really didn't know the name of your kit. I am not knowledgeable about modern stuff. I just knew it had a bunch of rocket tubes at the back.

Now let's not carried away......
Alan, no worries pard'. I was just teasin' ya.
Tread.
Oh. And those are 120mm rocket (read, mortar) tubes mister!
And if I understand it correctly, they are designed to fire all four tubes simultaneously!
