New WWI Artillery Kit
Permalink   


Bull Models (who gave us those fantastic kits of the MS1 and MS1a) have released a kit of the 6inch 26cwt Howitzer. And it is fantastic! You can also get 6inch ammunition.

You can get Bull Models kits from Ivan at Blitzkrieg Models:

Thanks PDA, 8 pounds is not too much if the kit is as good as you found it to be.

An interesting range btw. If Blitzkrieg models are reading this, there are two prices for P&P to any destination which I fail to understand.

Brilliant! Someone PLEASE do an FWD 3 ton lorry to tow it

I tried building the Matador one but it's a no-hoper, and not very detailed, really pleased to see a model of this gun available, and for cheaper than the Matador one

For anyone interested, I can highly reccomend the book 'London Gunners' which is about the siege battery of the Honourable Artillery Company who used these guns, and had FWD's to tow them, very very evocative and a great read
