Tamiya 88mm flak 36/37

[Alan 45]

This is my first commission build , I was asked by the owner of my LHS to build it which I was happy to do and it is now residing in his shop window 


I'm pleased about that 


it's the old tamy kit which is a good one although the figures are the worst I've seen from Tamiya so I wasn't able to do my best on them 


the base is just a little small so it's a bit cramped but I didn't have a bigger one 


here's the pics and comments welcome

Great work Alan, I bet the shopkeeper's very happy with it.

That is cool! oddly enough, I've just got hold of a couple of these, one Afrika Korps and one like yours. There's a similar gun in the Nashorn, and I really enjoyed building and weathering that!


Is there a better crew available from other manufacturers? I'd not looked too hard at first, but I see what you mean now...
