@hokie71 posted:@jini5, just bought an Atlantis 1:48 kit, will let you know how it works out if you have not built one.
Hokie, had 8 of these built for a while now. I found it easier to build more than 1 at a time. You can whip them out pretty quick and then paint them all at once. It saves alot of time (if you plan on building more than 1). Hers's a few pics of 2 of the howitzers sitting on a Menards 50' scale flat car. What I like about the Menards car is that it has a wood deck, the deck sits low to the rails, is 1/48 scale, rotating bearing caps, and the price. What I dont like about the Menards car is that they just dont roll very well. I am also sending a few pics of the real thing. I took the pics of the real thing in Alliance Ohio.
