Dunluce Castle Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunluce Castle Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 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 Then 1/35 What's that you want something bigger...... 1/16 Want something even bigger? Wait for it... 1/6th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
