    Let's just add that the kill range for an L/70 vs. a Sherman A4 was 1000 meters. In order to knock out an L/70, a Sherman A4 had to be within 200 meters. An A2 could fire at point blank range and not penetrate the armour, though I'm sure it would have left the crew stone deaf for weeks afterwards. The Brit tanks opposing it were totally hopeless against it. A high velocity flat trajectory weapon is a really mean thing to deal with.

    BH, fine attention to detail and I totaly believe it. Of course, anyone who can produce Zeros and Halberstats with jewelry-like precision like you do can knock off things like road wheels with the same expertise that my wife cooks muffins.

    Looking just great so far Otter All these nice drawings make me feel like doing a tank profile too but I have far to little time for anything these days

    Hope to see this one advance beyond just the wheel, unlike the Panzer IV road wheel challenge.

    OK, nearly there now. Just a few brackets and some spare road wheels on the back deck and I'm done. This is what happens when you stay up until 4 AM listening to Frank Zappa. This is one nasty SOB to deal with, and the Brits and Americans must have had quite a time trying to find ways to take it on.

    Re: Pz. MK IV L/70

    C'mon John...have you ever seen me paint? I'm too stupid to figure that out. Give me an airbrush and inks or acrylics and I will produce a masterpiece. Paint in Illustrator or Photoshop??? I'm beginning to think that will never happen much to my deep sadness. I know what's needed. I just can't figure it out digitally. Besides, I still have an incomplete Do-17z to finish if I ever get the images I need.
