Interesting attempt at mobilizing artillery though a miserable failure against Allied firepower :confounded:

Yet again fantastic work Jim - and I love the patina you've done on the build!!!
Your way of making tarps and such is something I've yet to get the hang of... I kinda get there but not with your finesse. Practise, practise and practise I guess... ;)

Huge thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks Jens, tissue paper and some white glue diluted with water is all it takes...plus some practice of course.

excellant
Jim,
That is a cracking build mate.
Thanks guys, glad you like, Jap stuff may have been inferior to allied armor but they were robust and dependable machines
and quite nimble.
They could handle rough terrain, tropical temperatures and humidity quite well, pity it was all for a lost cause.

Jim
