IJA motorized Artillery WWII
All parts of the Shi-Ke tractor are still not glued until I finished the crew today. The fit of all figures with the tractor is good.
Finally cleaned up all crew figures. I hope they will look ok after painting. Quality is not on par with today´s standarts... Two crew members are still missing here as they will sit at their limbered gun
The 75 mm artillery gun in this limited edition was made completely out of lead metal. All parts were already thoroughly clean and no improvement works were necessary and fit was good.
The last two members of the gun crew are finished and they do fit almost perfectly into their seats
The gun limbered with the Shi-Ke tractor.

This is a very old shelf queen project, sitting maybe already ten years within my shelf of doom and waiting for its finish. My building morale was down as the figures are not really up to date to today´s standarts, had a lot of flash and there was the need for a lot of cleanup mismolded areas. But these figures were and are up until now the only option if you want to depict a crewed artillery tractor.
Today I plucked up my courage and cleaned up all figures. It worked and now I hope I will keep my Mojo high for completing this exotic and interesting topic successfully
