Okay, so we have been working on our quads- 1/700 DKM 20-mm Flak 38's! Why not? We make quad Bofors, quad 28-mms, and quad pom-poms...it's about time. New printer optics and tweaked resins are producing our finest barrels yet- there are even muzzle breaks, so thin out that paint! Very, very tiny, but don't fret, as usual we supply a couple of extra guns on these 8-mount wafers.

These are the DKM "3-seater" mounts, and come in an unshielded version (D703), and a shielded version (D704); as before they are pose-able at any angle.

These parts continue our 1/700 DKM weapon series, and there are plenty more to come- Happy Modeling!

At present, we're working up and proof firing more DKM items- 37 mm M42's, 8.8 and 105 mm twins, and some mid-caliber turrets. Should be online in a couple of weeks.

Also, I would appreciate any recommendations for references for DKM, IJN, and RN directors and sensors - including dimensioned drawings if possible. We have something left in this year's R&D budget allocation, and we've had a bunch of requests from buyers of our US directors- so, it's a project if I can purchase good source materials.

Else-wise, we'll return to 1/700 RN mid-caliber items, and perhaps some BIGGER stuff, too...

Regards,

-Carl

If you could I would love to see some French weapons in 1/700 scale. WW II AA weapons for the French navy would come in handy.
