This Gun was used in Germany throughout the second world war.
Pretty sure its a 1/35 scale but cant find who manufactured this kit as I don't have either the box or the instructions. Also in the box when I bought it were an Italeri Kubelwagen and a Tamiya PaK 37.
If anyone out there has built a kit similar and still has the instructions from it and could upload them in picture format anyand all help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

The German 7.5 cm howitzer was originally offered in 1/35th scale by Esci, and the molds are now owned by Italeri, if that helps. I no longer have the instructions, though.

I've emailed him the instructions. You also have to include the back of the box for the painting instructions.
