M16 Gun Carriage

This has kept me out of the pub and out of my wife's hair for a while now. M16 Gun Carriage in 1:16 scale from Trumpeter. Some of you may recall I built the Trumpeter T34 also in 1:16 (behind in the last picture). There are still a couple of things to do to it, but I am still looking for suitable bits as they will be scratch built parts. Also waiting for the display case to arrive before I start on the base. It will involve being embedded with a wall and sandbags. Anyway, comments and input are welcome also if you have any ideas to add to.

Matt

Hi Matt... :)

Nice pictures and you sure have put a lot of time and effort into that as it shows.   ;)

Just wondering, did the British Army ever use the Half-Track Military vehicle, not sure if the Canucks did or not.

Also would you know if the American Army Half-Track was the same size as the German one and was the German one diesel?  I think that both Half-Tracks were open at the rear as well for troops to ride in because were they not designed as troop carriers at first?

Again good work.

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Amazing Job!! While I can build them... I could never really paint them, so I gave up.
