Title: WW2 Artillery without crew?
Post by: Sinewgrab on 16 July 2016, 06:48:09 PM
Do y'all mind pointing me at manufacturers that do 28mm scale artillery, preferably French or German, without crew included?  I have models I wish to use for crew, so all I need are the guns, but I am having some trouble finding, say, French 75s, or 1913 Schneiders, or even a 47mm MLE to use without paying extra for crew that I don't want or need.  US manufacturers would be preferred, due to postage, but I'm willing to look further afield.

For the 47mm, is this the one you're looking for ? http://neucraftmodels.com/product-category/1_56_28mm/french-tanks-1_56-28mm/ (http://neucraftmodels.com/product-category/1_56_28mm/french-tanks-1_56-28mm/) They also have an eBay shop i think.

And for the Schneider : http://www.madbobminiatures.co.uk/shop/4587330663/canon-de-105-mle-1913/9065401 (http://www.madbobminiatures.co.uk/shop/4587330663/canon-de-105-mle-1913/9065401)

Oh, for crying out loud - I *just* ordered a Renault from Neucraft Thursday, and I never saw that he had artillery. My luck some days...

Those are two of the ones I was looking for, though.  Are there any other options - shipping from England can be rough...

Yeah, that is the thing, otherwise I would probably jump all over that offer.

Update!

I picked up two of the guns from Neucraft, and they are in my Weird War thread here: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=92143.0

Kevin actually saw this thread, and emailed me to ask if I wanted to add the guns to my order, before he shipped!  Now *that* is customer service!  Beautiful kits as well.  I definitely recommend his models.
