Kiwikitbasher Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) A satisfying 11-day project. This is the UM 1/72 M12 155mm GMC and Academy Jeep with AB Figures personnel. A few items are scratch-built including the Jeep's windscreen and folded canopy frame, the 155mm gun's breech, the cordite storage tubes, tarpaulins, and the shell-sling being held by the two loaders. The Jeep is detailed with a PE set by 3D Miniatures. My build log can be found over on Missing Lynx: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/missinglynx/m12-155mm-spg-open-topped-gb-t315848.html Edited July 28, 2018 by Kiwikitbasher Correct link 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorby Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 That's a fabulous little dio! I'd have to go without sleep to complete something like this in 11 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gorby, Well I did have a few sessions that finished between 1 and 3 am, but I don't sleep much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazer Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Great model and dio have just finished the same dio but don't compare to yours !. Won't bother showing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwikitbasher Posted July 28, 2018 Author Share Posted July 28, 2018 Thanks, but there's no competition from this end, I'd hate to think I out off someone sharing their model with others. I for one would like to see your M12. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairtrigger Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 First class. That is some achievement and it such a short timeframe. Difficult to home in on one specific aspect of that piece of work to highlight praise, as it's all so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 That's some smashing work Mark. I followed some of your build on ML.....Their Sherman based kits are quite challenging aren't they! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwikitbasher Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 Thanks to all for your comments above, and to Sgt SH, yes, UM kits have their issues but what a great range and good prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
