105 Schneider mod13 completed 1/35 scale

Hi people!

My last model completed, another french field gun, the 105 Schneider modèle 13, finished in a camo scheme seen during 1915 :

Family pic along with the 155C mod 1917, the family is growing and I dream on a 220TR now :

 

And two home made fakes...

I hope you like it.

Regards

Gilles(Lostiznaos)

Thank you very much!

The kit comes from Blitz, just like the 155. The kit is on the average but definitively not the best offer from this company, it claims for a lot of improvements. The 155 was better, but as far I know, there is no alternative on the market.

Gilles, excellent work on the kit, these will come handy for detailing any other Schneider kit!

Any chance of having a family shot of the rear? I mean the carriages should be fairly similar (identical?) but this cannot be judged from the fronal shot. Thanks in advance, regards, Pat

Thank you!

To answer Pat, the carriages are similar but not identical, I'll try to post rear view as soon as possible.

To answer Paul, There was at last two pics in a WW1 periodical called "le miroir de la guerre", if I remember. Both the French booklet about the french artillery and the GBM article provide a drawing made from those pics I suppose even they don't publish their reference.
The overall scheme is as close as the ref as I can do... Colors are of course conjectural and personal choice!

Hi Gilles, would it be this one "Le Mirior" it covers the period 1914 to 1918. You need to d/load a plugin to view the pages

Hi Paul!
As far I remember it should be!
Thank a lot for the link!
My Grand father had preserved different diaries and publications from his WW1 years and I'll tried to find the original one in the paper he left. It will be easier now.

To Pat : one pic of the two carriages, same family different shape!



I hope it can help!

Gilles, many thanks for uploading the image and sharing it with us. Your kits are great looking but also instructive - I see now the carriages are less similar than I used to think. Regards, Pat
