The 2cm Flakvierlingfrom Esci is finished.

Hello
The 2cm square is finished.
After I glued the strips to the base, the rest was a piece of cake.
All figures were placed, the ammunition was distributed accordingly. I added a special trailer for the flak from another kit. I only had to remove the box for accessories. The camouflage painting was similar to the Flak. This also adds some variety to the story. I assume that the own SdAnh. was destroyed and they helped each other out within the Flak unit.
Have fun looking at the pictures.
The next project is already underway. A furniture van SdKfz 163/3 with 3,7 cm Flak 43. conversion Sratch, as usual.
Flak from Revell, tank from Revell PIV J.

Very nice work indeed Jurgen.

The gun is a really lovely piece of work.

Just a thought but I use painted cat litter for bricks and rubble.
It’s dead cheap so you can use mounds if it and it looks really good.

Best wishes,

Chris

Thank you very much for your kind comments. I am glad that you like the flak.
Beano Boy : Don't remove it, that gives the whole thing the final kick, thanks for that. How did you do that?

If the anti-aircraft gun itself was already fantastic, the finished diorama is truly mind-blowing, Jürgen. :love: :love: :love:

Thank you kindly juergen, hopefully this might be of help to you and others too?

Most PC's,have built in App's and it is good to use them in a constructive way to aid ones own arts and crafts presentations. There are lots of annimated effects one can easily find and learn to use.

My arrow shows the way to 3D effects and great fun.

i copied the rather black screen on my PC , which show's the app i used. It is nothing special but i like using it on my own short musical movies on YouTube.

The Muzzle Flash, is what i used upon all four guns,in a repetitive way. Now i determined to review what the end result would be like, and having full volume on the film clip it near enough made me 'JUMP!' out of my chair! And so it was that i copied the main picture while the one minute film was left upon pause!
:coffee: Over the years i have used good special effects that have cost me, no cash at all. BB
