Polish Bofors 37mm AT gun

 

To accompany my lashed up Polish infantry battalion - and in anticipation of a game - I dug out this 1/35 kit and set about it.  It was every bit as horribly fiddly as I feared and it will come as no surprise that several tiny parts remained on the sprues.




My patience really ran out when I got to the axles - half a dozen tiny pieces on each side!  I did the sensible thing and replaced them all with a single axle cut from brass rod.
Crew figures were assembled from bits in the spares box.  The MG team are rather lovely 3D prints from Speira figures in Sweden.

Yes, Tim. Some of the 1/35 kits are designed for a glass dust cover. For wargaming purposes, it has to be handle friendly.
