.... in his search for M163A2 turret interior photos, the author found this...


Corregidor gun in 1/48 scale

.... and the author drops to his knees and bows to the ground with tears in his eyes chanting.... 'I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy'


Can you guess whos work this is? :-)

Hot damn! I wanna buy one. I bet that brass barrel is 3 quarters the price of the kit.

Waaaa! I'm not worthy!!!

Is it a 12" "Disappearing Gun?"

It's soooo cool!!

@mondo

Its 100% scratchbuilt from existing plans. Sorry... you can't buy it anywhere... he he he :-) :-)

@lonewolf

True that.... we're not worthy. waaaaaaaaaahh!



clue: He's an active member of IPMS-P-BAC (duh). :-) :-)

Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the same plan in mind!! But mine's a 1/35 one :-)

Hi Lipton!

Can't help not to reply on this thread.

It's Dr. Hermie landayan's work. Galeng!

Where did you get the pics?

I knew it it's Guarniere's work..

Guarnere, the true Master of Braille.

Grabe, I cannot even concieve building such a model.

I didn't see this one in person but yes, Doc Hermie's scratchbuilt stuff is breathtaking

Definitely impressive. A master scratchbuilder even.

Yes Liebgott its Doc. Hermies work. Grabe...

You can find this at http://www.track-link.net/gallery/search , type 'hermie landayan' in the modeller field and you'll see his other works aside from this.

Hey, you stole that image from Track-Link!

Tsk, tsk.

Paul.

An absolute gem of work. I believe it's in 1/72nd scale, not 48th. This was displayed in my old shop for a long time, and it did attract a lot of inquiries whether a kit could be bought or if it was for sale. BTW, the disappearing carriage works. You can manually raise/lower the gun, with the counterweights moving with it. Fantastic!

I have already sent an e-mail to the website regarding this. As soon as I have received their reply I will be posting both my original e-mail and their reply on this thread.

I was too excited when I saw a co-club member's work posted on that site that I have forgotten about this matter (terms and conditions).

I will keep you posted. Thank you very much for the heads up.


Bull
Indeed Sir, truly awesome and 'frightening' ;o) I wish in one of our regular club meets Sir Hermie will bring this piece along with him. I Really want to see it 'in the flesh'.

Good day!
-Lipton-

My lawyer will contact your lawyer.

Anyways... I don't care if people take pictures from my site and use them, afterall if I did then I probably wouldn't have bothered making track-link at all. I was just kidding with you anyways... if you haven't gathered that already.

Cheers,
Paul.

Ahhhhh! This is really breath taking work!! Sieg Braille!! I also hope to see it in the flesh in the future.

I agree with you, Buck. Guarnere is trully a Braille Grandmaster.
