Hi Steve,
What are the dimensions of the wicker baskets ? I have some 21.5 mm long and 8mm in diameter that came in Trumeters s.FH 18 Field Howitzer Gun Crew item number 00425, you get 4 in the box.
regards Jim

Afternoon Steve,
Something completely different from the norm! Should make for a very interesting build, especially with all the extra goodies :smiling4:

Hi Steve
I'm looking forward to this. You have certainly given the project a lot of thought and gathered up plenty of kit. If you could source just one basket it may be possible to cast the others you need.
Jim

Thanks Si. Already made a start and enjoying it so far.
You really want me to start doing resin work dont you Jim :smiling5::smiling2: The other Jim has been kind enough to send me the 18cm ones so we will see how they look first. Glad to have you along for the build

I'm in , bringing the cakes with me from my disaster.
Should be good Steve, can see this with all the add ons being a master class in additions.
Sitting in the corner, feeling P off:disappointed:

The other Jim has been kind enough to send me the 18cm ones so we will see how they look first.

If they’re for the 15 cm sFH 18 then they’re not 18 cm, they’re the same calibre as for your 15 cm sIG 33. If the baskets are for the projectiles only, chances are they would be the same for either gun — or at least, that the sFH 18 ones won’t look out of place with an sIG 33.

Steve. I fully expect you to weave the baskets from scratch. Don't let me down.

Hi Everyone

Hopefully you are feeling a bit better now JR after that save. They will have you in goal for England next
They are a couple of mm bigger than the Dragon ones Jakko but they look more realistic Looking forward to getting them on the Bison
I was tempted Peter but Mr T hasn't given me a lesson on micro weaving yet.:smiling3:
Your definitely in Scottie. Your detailing is a great driving force for me

Jim (&Samson) stepped up to the plate and sent me the baskets for the ammo. They were given FOC and for the luv of wanting to help a fellow modeller. Top bloke:thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thum b2:. They certainly look the part. They are a little too big for the PE parts but with a little adjustment this will not be an issue

Steve,
I am sure a man of your skills is up to the challenge. I find these models more satisfying when you get them to look good than the expensive over engineered kits.

Hi Steve
Loving it. Part of this mogglin lark is the satisfaction of finding a way around problems. That blue stuff looks interesting. Did the milliput parts come out when you warmed it? Do you have a link for the blue stuff?
