Christian BruerI much like the First to Fight kits, they have good details with less parts. So you can easily finish the build to start the paintwork (which I much like in modellmaking), or you can add a few modifications and details if you want.
Another nice kit out of their range, a 15cm s.FH. 18. Here you find a few more parts, but much lesser than in other common kits, but with very fine details. I build the kit right out of box, no extras added. The only things I will replace are the wheels. Only the metal wheels for the horse drawn version are included in the kit, but I want to build the traction mode version, so I have to replace the wheels with a self made 3D printed version. This is still in progress, so stay tuned.
Happy Modelling, Christian

Christian BruerUps, I missed your kind comments. Thx my friends 🙂
Well, meanwhile FtF announced the gun with carriage and wheels for motor traction, but anyway this one is unique 😄

Spanjaardyou certainly got a point there Christian. but you know, we are all equal, but some are more equal than others 😉

Christian BruerSure Spanjaard 🙂
@Alec, I just made the sketch. The 3D design was made by a friend. I have no idea what kind of software he used to design it.

Christian BruerWell Alec, after nearly a year I'd like to say thx for the thumb up 😄
Anyhow, the howitzer is finishes as well as some figures painted. Now up to create a little scenery - I hope it will not take another year 😄
