This is a project I started last last year and finally finished.












This is a full scratch build based on a Trumpeter KV-8 kit. The fighting compartment is made from sheet styrene. The gun, gun shield and mantle are 3D prints based on parts I created from factory period drawings. The model is detailed with Eduard and Royal PE, Aber tow loops. Master Club white metal tracks and resin bolts, figure is MiniArt.

EXCELLENT!!!....I really like it.

Cheers,

Really some great modeling work here ! I wish that this SPG would of been fielded. I'd love to see a YouTube video of this baby firing !


a 3 out of 3 beer rating AND I wish I could add a fourth beer !
Thanks for sharing !

Love the finish....the camo fade with white on the lower half. I'll have to use that in the future.

Some very fine scratch-building here! Looks exactly like some prototype the Russians would have tried to field. Great paint work on this mean-looking monster as well!

Thank you Joe, Ivan, Greg and Jack! I appreciate the comments.

This looks awesome! A very unique subject and excellent scratch print moding! What is the green rolled up tarp on the port side fender made of? I can't tell if its an aftermarket product or made from putty. If it's scratch built, I want to use that for Zeltbahns I'm working on.

Thanks Nathan. The tarp is made from Green Stuff epoxy putty.
