Then cut out a couple of pieces from an old tank, and there is a pedestal for the AA gun, dont know how realistic it is though, couldn't find any good pics of how they looked
Pretty much the shape it was in when I got it back, I just separated the hull and took the tracks off. I did not do a good job with it in the first place. Put it together way to fast and the color was way off. I always used to build stuff so fast.
So my original idea for a base didnt work, I had to make a new one, both wider, longer and it sits higher up in the vehicle. I added supports to it as well.
Here is the 2 cm Flak 38 being built, now this was a descent model, a lot of detail, but i had some problems on some of the movable parts, like the PE part inside would not stay, and ended up breaking the tab off.
Here is my third Sdkfz 251, this will be either a 251/1 or maybe a 251/17, haven't decided yet. I will be painting it in dunkelgelb and panzergrau.
So I have decided it will be a 251/17, and not a production one, but a Field modified one. I am thinking East Front around 1943 or so. Made the gun mount myself out of an old tank hull and a few smaller flat parts for the mount brackets, also cut some bolts off of another old tank hull to add bolts to the mounting brackets. I have found pictures of guns that were mounted in the back of a normal Hanomag, but I could not find any kind of pictures of a field modified mount so I just had to think of how they might have done it.
