40mm BOFORS AA GUN IN 1:35 BY BRONCO.
« on: November 29, 2018, 04:47:34 PM »
                  Built this as a commission for Col Tony, it's a presentation for a 90year old colleague of his.
           The colour and layout are to Tony's instructions, there are six very nice figures included in the kit but it was decided not to include them.
               You're offered two different gunsights and two types of seat.
           The detail is exquisite, probably a little over-engineered in places but the final result, I think, is worth the effort.
            Built over a period of six weeks, pretty quick for me.
                  My camera takes two shots, one with and one without flash. The colour (dark bronze green) tends to hide the detail so I've included both, first without flash.

Excellent work as always, up to ship standard.

I think its more like 'Ship shape and Bristol fashion'
Another example of great precise work, we all hope to aspire to.
I'm sure Col. Tony's friend will be delighted.
Cheers,
Bigkev
I hope my next is always better
