      I’ve been thinking (off and on) about what to build for this, and I suddenly remembered that last autumn, I purchased this Resicast kit:

      [ATTACH]512811[/ATTACH]

      A Canadian Land Mattress multiple rocket launcher.



      The very first combat use of this was bombarding a German coastal battery not 10 km from where I live, which is why I bought it. This group build might be a good opportunity to actually put it together

        Supply problems and price have put me off my original idea of Congreve rocket and crew so, as I already have this in my stash, this will be my offering! It's Dragon's 1/35 SdKfz 251/1 Ausf D mit 28/32 cm Wurfrahmen 40. I Intend to place it in a small diorama - composition undecided yet! Still can't sort orientation, sorry :anguished:

          Would a TOR AA system be acceptable? You can't actually see any rockets/missiles, they are

              Steve don’t be sorry. You have lots of time. I probably won’t post peoples subjects by their name until we get really close. Nice choice

                    I said I was going for the old Airfix Bloodhound. Well PJ managed to get hold of one at Coventry on Sunday, so we'll be doing our own mini GB!

                              Today I put in my order for the kit for this GB. Will show an image of it when it arrives but I'll leave the box sealed.

                              Very excited for this because it's not an aircraft haha!

                                Sounds great Steve glad you excited about the build. You can open it and open the sprue bags also to take a look at it. You have to have sprue shots away might as well open it.
