Bolt Action: German 105mm Howitzer

   I thought my loyal readers, there must be some, might like to see the German 105mm Howitzer that wreaked such havoc at Arras.

   In the early war years it was the 105, with the 88 Flak, that was the only defence against the heavy Allied armour like the Matilda, Char B or KV

   This is the Warlord Games model from their Bolt Action range. This is an awesome metal kit. You get the gun, five crew and two ammunition sets. The detail is quite amazing. Too much for me, if truth be told. A good modeller will find this kit fantastic but if you are Johnny Two-Thumbs like me it is a bit of a challenge. I never did get the shield quite right. Mind you the finished article is well good.

  I sourced the base from from Renadra plastics.

Sorry for the poor pics. Rotten weather here so had to use a flash.
