hi all,this is new model i finish,M2A1 howitzer,decalt make it in WWII but i didn't use (I built it in ARVN artilery),paint by tamiya acrylic (mix XF58 and XF62),weathering and wash with pigment and oil colors.I hope you like it and welcome all comment

Loc - Overall a very nice build.

Couple of artillery tips,
Modern artillery would not build up any black soot at the end of the barrel. Artisticlly it is nice but not true to scale.

I cannot tell but the elevating gear and traversing gear, the teeth would be a dark steel color and would not be painted green

If the howitzer was emplaced, the aiming stakes on the left trail (looking from the front) and the ramming staffs on the right trail would be removed. The aiming stakes would be in use downrange and the ramming staff would be off to the side, ready if needed.

The spades on the end of the trails are always scratched and show wear from use and pounding in the dirt.

Just a few artillery pointers. Hope that helps

Rounds Complete!!

Welcome!

The breech block is one single peice so the seams on the block will need to be filled.
It is usually steel coloured & the slide rails behind it would also some wear.

Not too bad. In addition to what the others have said, the aiming stakes should be red and white striped. Also, you have the tires out of alignment. The tread should make a wavy W pattern with the raised and lowered areas staggered, not across from eachother.
