Revolutionary War Howitzer

[MAPMFF]

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.

I’d love to see video of that beauty in action.

I've been reluctant to do much of any content with it because the wheels were not right. I plan for that to change in the spring!

But here is a photo to tide you over!
