Anyone have a pic of how these go together?  I am struggling with it, when I just put them together the barrel points to the ground.  Do I just bend the supports?

Which nationality?

It's often worth googling images of the real weapon - the models are generally pretty close to the real thing

It's a German 105 howitzer gun like the one below

I'm just worried that I might snip of something I shouldn't in order to get them together.

Cheers for the promo Dazza!  :)

I may have cut the bottom part of the spade on the trail to make them sit better - I figured that if they had been firing for a while, the spade would have dug in....I may have bent the trails a bit too -  I made these a while ago, so can't remember!

Re crewing anything of Nik's: as long as it's not a tank, you'll be fine.... ;D
