WIP French 1897 75mm gun

 Hi guys

1/72 Laffly S15 TCC finished, added some detail to the breach and some Hat crew figures.

Next I was going to start on the printed 1897 75mm gun, but comparing it to the Hat offering I have decided to go with the later, the Hat model is soft plastic, but the gun shield is much better detailed, and you get the later wheels (enough for 2 guns) in the Hat artillery set, whilst the printed version has better details on things like the elevation and baring wheels, Ive made up the guns and will look to see if I need to add any extra details to them, I may take the elevation/baring wheels of the resin model and add them to the Hat one.

  3. Those Hat soixante-douzes are fine models and look great once painted. Your added tyres look good.
