5 Star Railway Gun
Permalink   


I am backdating this 1/72 Five Start WWII German Railway gun to a WWI version.  I've started the conversion but there is still quite a bit of work to be done.  I need to...

  • Replace the kit railings and platforms
  • Scratch build the two Vogele platform supports underneath the center section
  • Repair poor molding on the upper structure.  I shaved off all the rivet and hope to reapply them.
  • Scratch build the sight and other elevation equipment
  • Thin down the roof section and straighten the warping

I plan on painting this with the multicolor camouflage, as seen on this webpage.

That's a great start, I have this kit with exactly the same conversion in mind so will be watching with interest. Good luck with the rest of the build.
