here's the biggest artillery piece ever used in warfare. Imagine the size of a layout you would need for this girl?....would be something to model - for the more adventurous of us!

Did someone here build a model of one a while back? A4Mallard, maybe?

The one A4 built was the 'Leopold'....a baby in comparison! Stunning piece of work it was too!

 

Ah ha... only had a vague recollection of seeing it here. Cheers HF!

The funny thing is you can get a model of the Gustav in 1/35 at over 6ft long!

 

A friend of mine is building the same gun in 1/72nd and its only 3ft but still has taken over a year to complete.

 

Any pics of it Nelson?

Plenty of pics on the web, but here's a few I picked out, none of these pics are mine, I just thought they are good to show off the size of these massive guns.

1/72
