My latest work combining a 1/72nd IBG Chevy C15A and Zvezda's QF 2 lb gun.

@ChaoXVI - Toby,

Superb job that you've done there; including the conversion to the longer wheel base. The Zvezda gun looks like a nice kit and I know the IBG truck is quite good (but expensive in my area). I've always had a soft spot for these "early technicals." I recall that "JayPee" did a 6 Pdr Bedford half track version for the Braille Battlefield campaign. Cool things!

Thanks for sharing!

Cheers,
Jan

Hi

Very cool model.
But the base is not so nice.
I wish there where more plants ore a bush.
But very nice truck!

Went back and read your thread on the build to get smart on it. Very cool idea and I'm now a little more knowledgable on it. Thanks for sharing!

Awesome model. I too agree the base is too plain. Some scrub brush would liven up the display.
