This represents my best attempt at professional looking photos of my final Type 4 Ho-Ro project. All that remains is painting her up and finding a suitable scenario in which to allow her debut!

A close up view of the finished gun in the crew compartment.
Updated paper template - before making the final pieces, I like making templates from cheap paper (usually 3x5" cards) so I can test size, fit and shape. It is an extra step but, in the end, it saves money (not wasting plastic sheet styrene) and does save time (paper is much easier to trim and work with.)

Trying something new - uploading a BUNCH of photos all at one time. I'll see if it works! Anyway, this is my latest and biggest build project - making a Type 4 Ho-Ro self propelled gun on a Type 97 Chi-Ha hull. For more, please go to Historicalminis.com
