My latest kit. Excellent kit, very fast and easy build.

One question tho: I plan to hitch this to my Mercedes L4500R Maultier thinking they will make a nice, matching camo "late-war couple" in an upcoming dio.

Is it realistic? I mean the "Heavy" L4500 mule had more than enough power to pull this piece and that's exactly my point: I've seen all kind of vehicles from lorries to SdKfz 250s pulling this piece, would it be "overkill"? Should I save my Mule for let's say my FlaK36?

Thanks, Trifon

Excellent build,l Trifon! Really like the camo on this one.

Reg. the Mercedes pulling this gun, I don't see why not. If fact, it may be more realistic than the truck pulling a Flak 36. I've seen lots of pics of the 36 but never seen one being pulled by anything other than an Sdkz 7.

Cheers,

Rob

Very nice Trifon. I definitely need one of these in my collection...
Don't know about the towing bit, usual towing vehicle for a leFh18 was the Sdkfz11 series, rated at 3 tonnes (or the Sdkfz251 series armoured halftracks, which used the same base). The fitting of the Maultier unit lowered the payload of vehicles so fitted by about a ton (Opel Blitz Maultiers were rated at 2 tonnes rather than 3), so perhaps a Merc wouldn't be out of place.

Rob thanks!

Steve, thanks, also for the perpspective on the towing bit!

I like the camo job. Wish you had posted a build log. I am building the same kit by Trumpeter and will either do a whitewash or keep it German grey. I've found the only problem with Trumpeter is that you can't get replacement parts.
