Hello Char,

wonderful build did you do! This gun really looks like it is often used. The PE is truly beautiful. Well done on this subject! And that only in one week building and painting.

Hello, nice work of the gun! The photo-etched-sets make it better detailed, than the simple kit only.
I also have a "gun on my table". The actual build-log can be found in this forum. (itīs the Trumpeter s.K18 cannon)
For transportation the gun, I think it is better to move the barrel into full recoil.

Very nice work -- especially on the PE work. May I point out one thing? The two thick bars that you have painted red & white should probably be dark yellow or natural wood. They were levers used by the crew to spread out the trail arms. Red/white colors were reserved for aiming stakes, thin diameter rods that were stuck into the ground and used as aiming reference sites.

Hope this helps.

Thank for your help.
Because I read the Dragon's guide,there are painted red & white.So I do that,maybe it's wrong.

Spectacular work! The level of detail is incredible, and the weathering you have done makes the gun look like it has seen a lot of travelling from location to location, and it really looks like it has taken part in a lot of action.

After seven minutes I am able to see two pictures. Your build looks good. From my point of view I wish you would resize your pictures to 800 x 600 so they would load faster for me. Unfortunately not everyone has access to high speed internet service. Keep up the good building.

Joe, his photo properties say they are 800x565.

Really nice job on the kit.
