I don't, as a rule, like Dragon Model's 'Inside Story' publicity material very much. It tends to go off on wings of hyperbole. However, there are (happily) always exceptions to the rule, and in this case, i'm pleased to be able to show a couple of detail images of the company's forthcoming 25 Pounder in 1/35th Scale.
The updated images are from their forthcoming release:
6675 - British 25-Pdr. Field Gun Mk.II w/Limber & Crew
Now, on the first, the gun crew look very promising indeed. There hasn't, to my knowledge at least, been a set of figures of this kind before and frankly it's been long, long overdue.
Secondly, the limber. DML appear to have been doing their homework on the ammunition trays on the limber and the idea of including PE to get 'scale' on the ends, seems very realistic. Of course, somewhat tempering this by the comment that this is a CAD image does bring the thing onto perspective, but it seems we can be pretty optimistic over the final product. Also, designing the trays so they can be removed is also a great leap forward.
More, to come...
