Hi Folks,

 

Here are some photos of my recently completed QLB and Bofors Mk l on a Mk ll Carriage. The QLB is based on the Airfix QLD chassis with a scratcbuilt body and features a detailed interior complete with snatchblock/straps, pick heads and handles, winch and fairlead rollers and pulleys, and 5 Enfield rifles in the racks in the crew compartment.

The gun is the excellent Milicast kit with a photo-etch Stiffkey sight added.

I hope you like it.

 

Cheers,

 

Neil

Thanks for the positive comments Schliesser92.......you are probably right about the towing loaded, but I have at least 3 photos showing them being towed loaded and in two of those, the Elevating and Traversing Layers are in their seats. Maybe this was more for parade or show and not in action although one of them, a Canadian Bofors is being towed with crew in position and infantry marching along side....possibly on excercise.

 

Cheers,

 

Neil
