Quick photo of my howitzer from a film shoot this past weekend. Haven't really discussed it much as the current wheels on it are not correct, but it's a cool shot and I wanted to share it. The new, correct wheels should, hopefully be done this week. Once I get them I have to add the streak nails, then paint and prime them. I'll post some photos of that process as I go along.

Then the continued effort to find an actual bronze barrel as the one on it now is just iron painted. It works from a distance but doesn't fool anyone up close.


A mixed impression of a mid/late war composite gun crew. Typically we portray very early war, which are the more simple blue coats with red facings.

The Living History community is lucky to have you. It's fine stuff you do.
 
I have been shooting black powder firearms since I was a child. I have never been around or seen any of these cannons in the field and firing. One day I would certainly really like to be present to watch something like that. Great job with everything, it's not every day people get to see living history.
