Hi everybody,
I am continuing to spam the forum with models. This time it's Bronco's fantastic Diana. Unfortunately, I didn't keep a good track of the progress, so I'm posting only the current status. The vehicle is undergoing some weathering torture. Will keep you updated as it goes, hopefully this weekend I'll have an hour or two for it
Some pictures:
Thanks a lot for casting a glance As ever, any and all comments and recommendations are most welcome!
Have a nice day,
Ivan

Apologies Raphael, seems like I ran out of bandwidth. Should be fixed now

Hi Rob,
It's actually a captured Soviet F-22 76,2-mm divisional gun. The same as on the early Marder II and Marder III. The Germans used these also as towed guns. They also rechambered them to utilize the PaK40 75-mm projectiles, but the Dianas were built and equipped (most likely -- still researching on this) prior to the rechambering, hence, I'll use the captured Soviet projectiles for this model.
