Thanks! This one was a struggle. While doing the camo scheme, I accidentally dropped my wooden model painting stand on the model. The spade and trail shattered into 10 pieces. I thought that it was a total loss. But, I was able to get all of the pieces back together and it is almost impossible to tell where it was broke.

Album info

This is the full resin kit from Commander Models. It took quite a bit of prep work, 18 hours, to clean the flash and mold parting seams and fill the voids and pin holes. I added a long list of missing details including brakes, on-gun tools, wheel hubs, travel lock latches, spade hinge and latches, trail handles. I detailed numerous other kit parts. All in all, I spent 90 hours on the kit.

It is a welcome addition to my WW1 AEF artillery park.
