I’d do the wheels as separate pieces - trying to airbrush the spokes once attached would be a nightmare I’d imagine

Exactly. Do each part separately and then assemble. Would be a disaster to try and a/b with the wheels mounted to the carriage.

Dunno what you are whingeing about. Adler do OTS artillery with separate wheels, gorgeous gear, but a pig to assemble, first time I stuck my fingers together.

Fortunately the neighbour's wife had some nail polish remover.

I’d like your review on ‘Anna and the Apocalypse’ please. It’s branded as ‘Shaun of the Dead meets High School Musical’. On Now/Sky

Warlord games WWII French 105mm howitzer.
Spindly, treacherous sod, it is.
Total attachment area for the (unnecessarily separate) lower hanging shield-plate is maybe 6mm - spread over three points.

There’s no ‘fixed’ attachment point for the split-trail legs. They must be sat on the axle ‘freehand’.
And they’re so damn long that any minor variance in angle is glaringly obvious.

The sighting mechanism must be sat balanced on the trunnion without any attachment point.

But dammit, arty is points-free on the French list so I want the biggest bastard I can get.
