No problem mate.

Incidentally, that is a 30cm ruler in one of the photos. Should give you an idea of size.

A new acquisition – I find it hard to resist large-scale bombardment devices over 28cm in calibre – from Belmont Models in Wellington aka bigsky42 on Trademe…

It comes in a big box but there is quite a bit of air inside. It will still be an impressively large when completed but sadly lacks any of the prominent rifling visible at the muzzle.

No, not The Guns Of Navarone gun….

John, I've seen some commentary at Armorama that it has accuracy issues - the Soar Art Dora did with regard to its ladder structures - but my care factor is pretty low so long as it looks the part...

Edit: this is what I did find...

This should be the last arrival pre-Christmas (at least it will be at the moment :roll: ) and looks to be a rather nice new tool from Revell

I'll do an in-box review shortly for those interested
