I got some good photos of the M-46 130mm howitzer last week at Camp Mabry, which I'd like to scratchbuild in the future. My scratchbuilding skills far surpass my casting abilities, but I'd like to make it available to others if possible. Would you guys be willing to pay for the basic shapes-tires, trails, gun cradle, etc, knowing you'd have to add your own small details? By that I mean things like the spade stowage brackets and other small items that might break off a casting. Hey, it'd almost be like certain kits out of Colorado. What do you think?

Only if you had never mailed out the product! :-)

While the M-46 doesn't appeal to me. per se, I like the idea of someone producing at least accurate basics for such a kit. I far prefer that to "full" kits that are either inaccurate or full of bubbles or both.
Oh wait, were we talking about Colorado?
