It looks pretty cool! Were these things real?

BEUTIFUL!!!! That is the only way to describe it! I can't wait until you finish it!!!

Yup. Flak 88 on Google images (there are some other creations of this gun but mine will be much more detailed.

Very nice to see you getting back to MOCing DP!

This looks great so far! It has a nice feel to it and the SNOT (let's not get into this again ) is awesome!

The "gun" itself is very creative!!

Can't wait to see the end!!

I only used a couple of 1x2 grills for snot, nothing else! (yes only that part is SNOT) Thank you for the comment!

Stubborn DP...

I mean the "legs" technically they are considered SNOT...

This is really great! I can remember firing one of these things on COD.

Pretty nice. I like the techniques used on it.

Very realistic so far! But I'd say you should get Harley Quinn's Hammer Truck or the Tumbler and make a wheeled Flak.

I'd so love to see a Africa Korps camo'd one, too! I remember back in the day playing Blitzkrieg, and I so loved the Flak 88 during the Rommel campaign .


I <3 WWII.


Ahem, yes, time to get back on topic...

Good technique so far... but I think the barrel is too small in diameter. And the gunner's platform seems a tad too big. Awesome start though !

What sort of question is that? You've never heard of the German 88 Millimeter Cannon???

Kids these days CC. I like the WIP but it could use some wheels as others said. These things own in MOHH2!

I've always wanted to make this gun DP! So far so good!

Yeah; these things tore up aircraft one two three!

I'm not making the wheeled one, guys. Just the stationary one. I think both are fine since I have 5 reference pictures next to me, of which one is a picture with some German troops manning a gun like this, and the end of the gun is just as thick as their arms. So check for yourself it is the right thickness.

Thanks for all the comments.

I'm a bit stuck on how to make the 'shield', any ideas? http://www.itzproductions.com/images/Logos/Flak_88_Cover.jpg

Use the mudflaps from the Indy truck chase set.

I can't think of any DP... but PD's idea is a very good one!

And how would I do that?
