Its a long weekend here in OZ, the same long weekend the CoC MOAB event should have been on but cancelled and still living with restrictions. I tried to make the most of it and scratch built a USMC 37mm Anti-tank gun, Japanese 75mm Mountain Gun, 47mm Anti-tank gun and a 20mm AA gun. My initial plan was to build the Mountain gun but once I was in the swing of things I kept going and built the rest.
Plastic sprues, figure bases, styrene sheets, paper clips and viewing a large number of images on the web together with a bit of "guess-a-rama" were utilized in the construction of the scratch builds.
I have also started putting together both Japanese and US Marines plastic figures to man the guns.
