After some building, I finished Soar Arts' M1 35,3cm Heavy German Howitzer in 1:35. A pleasure to build, with great fit (just a bit tight at times) and some fiddly bits (not to build, but to handle after finishing it: ie railings and ladders) .
Now it is ready to build a diorama around it...
Missing the materials for the scenery, but more importantly, the figures I have in mind, and a truck.
