Title: 20mm E-100 Dual 8.8cm FlaK
Post by: Agis on January 10, 2010, 09:07:07 AM: Hi again,

in addition to all the Gear Krieg books and expansions I am also working on a book about Panzer Prototypes or Projects. The E-Series naturally captures some of my attention...
(http://www.adpublishing.de/assets/images/E-100_Flak_2.jpg)
The model is a 20mm Cromwell E-100 Dual Flak with additional AB crewmen.
I really like the crewmen, the "scanning the skies" look was IMO very fitting.

What is wrong with "one of those"?
IMO ugly as sin, but better looking as a Maus, or?

Nice model, regardless! I love the ambush camo with the rings of colour, I think I'm going to keep that camo scheme in mind for some SF armour, next time I do SF armour!

What I meant is, I wasn't in the least surprised either by the design (which I've known for some years now) or that you did one. I think it's a worrying sign of treadhead syndrome that I now instantly recognise tanks that weren't even built. o_o lol

There is a fitting 1/48 model from Gasoline!
Being an really HUGE tank 1/48 might not hurt in 28mm games, or?
;)

Surely it would be a Tempest II ?
