One of the lovely prezzies I got from Santa this year was this "28mm scale" 8-in Howitzer "MK V" from HLBS.
It's really quite a cracking little model. Assembly was easy, but I ended up pinning the metal wheels to the resin carriage
I also made a base for the model, just for stability.
Similar to what I've done for the
Ork Flakk gun, I put pins into the base to match up with small unobtrusive holes in the underside of the gun. This way I can use the gun based or unbased.
I can see this model having a wide range of usefulness, from Great War games (obviously) to WWII and even 40K and other sci-fi settings. The gun is so Gothic looking and huge that it would be a natural fit for my
40K Chaos Renegades force - I've even bought a crew from Forgeworld for it.
