Go for it Vanvlak, can it be as good as the Corny Titan?

Firestorm, I can send you half a dozen old LRs if you need them, the other bits are in short supply here too though  :(
It's a great 'long tom' there should be more of them  :laugh:

I might have to take you up on that, Justiniel... although just 2 will suffice! ?:;): ?:laugh:

Hey, just seen this on eBay: Terrain Piece

It suggests to me an orbital defense battery - if a rather outsized one! :O

I think any gun that's bigger than a Titan wins this contest, hands down :;): :laugh:

Ah, now I see it. TBH, I'm not too crazy about it.

Yet, it's not the most amazing piece you'll find on eBay - or anywhere else for that matter!

One to file under e-bay oddities, me thinks. ???

Sorry to revive an old thread but I was just looking for a bit of inspiration for the final details of my Ordinatus Krieg when I came across this page:
http://wilk.wpk.p.lodz.pl/~whatfor/karl.htm
I really like the "action shot" gif animations! That's one serious gun when the camera man who appears to be standing quite far away is still shaken by the recoil blast... :cool:
Also check out the pic of the guy hauling the shell casing (600mm...)... Now that's one friggin huge piece of ammo (Well for a self propelled gun anyway!) ...not har to see where SG got the inspiration for their current Bombard model...

I also really love the paint job on this model:
http://membres.lycos.fr/barkmann/galeri ... rl-rc.html

Here's the gun in action again in better quality:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-mYxJA_V_8

..And for those who prefer a longer barreled Ordinatus here's a pic of a 1:35 scale 300mm Leopold Railway gun. Lots of nice detail shots. Way better than that WW2 photage anyway :;):

Yep, I thought the same thing, when I saw the E40K Bombard !  The G/W version of "Karl" !  And I too, like the German camo scheme, Panzer Yellow, green and terracotta ...  Classic !  :D
