Basic groundwork on the Flak vignette



Some basic groundwork to accomodate the Flak.

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.





On a wooden base with an Alpine Miniatures 'German Officer' who happened to pass by.




The background is one of my more artistic creations !
