I started preparations for the 37mm cannon, there are about 60 to 65 parts, the smallest PE parts are 0.5 by 0.8mm.....
I hope i will bring this to a good end.. :D

In that case your eyes are much better then mine my friend!  Seriously, have fun building the 37mm, I am sure it will turn out great.

The 3,7 is not finished yet, i still need to mount the seats, visors and some other small hinges/parts.

Beautiful gun Karel!

Nice one-handed phtography too.

Do you have a pic from in front of the splinter shield?

The 3,7 is finished.
The seats supposed to have holes in it, i made them with a 0.5mm drill.
I also `hollowed` the seats a bit by pressing a round object in them, and i added handles from streched sprue on the adjusting wheels.






















Next job will be the even smaller 2cm`s, so i have to prepare myself mentally now.... :D

Here are the parts needed for the 2cm`s (including Revell parts), the plastic barrels will be replaced by the brass barrels.
The gun shields were not present on the U995, so these will not be mounted.

The 37mm is a real work of art Karel.  Very cleanly built!
