Good job on the model. I wonder if they would keep the flak mounted on the dollys when it is placed in the embankment? Havent seen any phoitos of this. It would be quite unstabile (although can fire supposedly like this) and also reduce accuracy.

Thanks Frank Glackin..these guys were in a hurry.may be they didn't get much time to disembark compromising accuracy in a haste..Such a lousy commander i must say

Great job! The flak is exemplary! The figures are nice, as well.

The flak 88 could and in Russia and Africa did fire while mounted, just had to make sure the brakes were applied. I have never seen any thing abouth the accuracy factor anywhere .

Thanks edmund forsythe..i did see some pict of the Flak firing in this position but i did not really know that it could compromise accuracy,may be logically it came up to my mind that firing in this position can compromise accuracy since after firing the flak its bound to move a bit..not sure though about being legit.

John ,,, Very nice mate ,,clean and tidy and what you see there is happened many times in combat ,,i have seen the 88 fired many times still sitting on its wheels ..as for the accuracy its not a problem as the shell has already left the barrel before the recoil is felt and boy do these things move when fired ,,always cool to watch
Nice job mate .

Great Job on the flak. You might want to dull down the figures a bit though because the uniforms are a wee bit on the shining side. Again great job!!
