88 mm Flak 37 mit Behelfslafette -- DRAGON 6523 -- 88 Flak PE Gun Shield

By finishing the Flak shield, the work on the gun came to an end.

It's a photo-etched Aber replacement part.

This is what the Flak looks like, kind of snapped together, I wanted to keep the sub-assemblies to ease the paint job.
