The LAV A2 looks nice good to see more modern armour.

The 21cm Mörser 18 looks very nice!
I planned the smaller 17cm Kanone 18, but perhaps I will switch my plans... or I will buy and build both. ;-)

edit:
As I seen that correctly, also its sister-kit, the 17cm Kanone 18, has 2 big "errors".
One is the 3 missing spades (3 spade-holders with 4 spades each)
The other is the incorrect afterward part of the both "gangways".
The end-part have to be bend down, so that the ammo-crew easily can walk with the ammo-holder onto it.

I sure does look tempting, Soeren! I still haven't bought the 17cm Konone 18. Would probably get that one first before this one but who knows...

When are you going to work on DML's sFH 18? I would love to see you get to work on that one as I need some inspiration at the moment to finish mine (after waiting a couple of months for Dragon to send me replacements for the trail arms)

Get to work on it!

A bit offtopic:

I had plans for Dragon´s 15cm howitzer for a 3-tone-camo, but this kit is actually not deliverable from my shop.
Also I had plans for a coastal-defence-position with an s.10cm K18 in 2-tone-camo, but I stopped my plans for both ideas.
I have 3 kits including their different bases to build, and my "s.10cm K18" has lost its wheel; I have to fix that. ;-)

Dragon "would" send replacing-parts? That would be fine! I hope, they do it!

greetings...
Soeren
