Welcome the "A" Jeremy. Nice work there.
What kits did you use for this build? Is this part of CGM's kit?

Nice model - did you take the Steve Zaloga approach and start with the gun from the Italeri/Max etc M6?

Clever use of the Tamiya figure too.

Welcome to Armorama Jeremy and what a way to start. Excellent work, I'm very impressed. It's good to see another artillery modeller around here.


Thanks! Glad you like it.

Looks good, I took photos of the one here at Ft. Knox for when I start my 37mm gun. I hope mine looks as good as yours.

The main gun comes from Italeri/Max Peerless kit and wheels from US jeep. What does CGM stands for?

I am impressed that you know the figure is from Tamiya! My kit is based on Steve Zaloga model but I decide not to build the gun since it is quite acceptable.

You are so lucky to live in US.
In Singapore, it is so hard to find reference material on 37mm gun. Keep me posted on your kit.

What does CGM stands for?



CGM is a French resin company that makes a kit of same gun.

A review of the kit is HERE I do however like your path better than paying forty bucks for a mediocre kit.
