Australian M198 155mm Howitzer


Recommended Posts

G'day everyone

Here is Trumpeter's 1/35 M198 155mm Medium Towed Howitzer (Late Version), which I finished recently. This is the first gun I have built and it was quite enjoyable to build something different.

I used Mouse House's Australian tyres, Auscam paints and decal set and plan to eventually mount it on a simple base.

Thanks for looking

Greg

Nice work Greg, how do the mouse House tyres differ from the kit ones?

:thumbsup:

Thanks Ray

Apart from the kit having rubber tyres and the MH wheels / tyres being resin, the MH ones are slightly wider and have a different (corrected) tread pattern. There are also no tyre manufacturer / brand markings on the MH ones as is the case with the kit tyres ('Goodyear' I think?).

Thanks Greg, they do look better on the model.
