Archer Self Propelled 17 Pdr Anti-tank gun

This photo on internet made me curious about the Archer.

So i bought in the summer of 2023 the 1/35 model from Tamiya

and start building...

A small diorama would be nice to...

A job well done i think 😊

"Uneasy" eight

For this diorama i used an old Kit from Italeri, the Sherman M32B1 recovery tank and an M4A3 Sherman 105mm HVSS from Dragon, both scale 1/35. Together with the Country Diorama from MiniArt i made diorama that took place in France, late 1944. The easy eight took a shell hit through its petrol tank and engine and is pulled away by the M32B1. I finished this diorama in January 2012.

From December 2009 until april 2010 I build a resin model from an 1/35 BR 52 war locomotive. It was my first experience with resin and thats whole different ballgame in relation to plastic! After all i succeed to make a acceptable diorama whit it. 

Watch the arrow! I glued a piece of plastic strip between the fire box and the cabin. Otherwise the cabin was slightly tilted backwards
