Description

This is an injection-plastic kit of a science-fiction/anime item.

The "Fist of War" series is based on an alternative timeline in which the end of WWII is delayed by two years, and where we explore the possibility of what the hypothetical advancement of weapons developed would be from that time period.

The German K3 railway gun was designed off of the late war "E series" tanks using the E-75 hull on both ends of the massive 28cm railway gun. Used in February 1946, the German Army launched a counterattack to the United forces' Anzio landing operation in Italy using the K3 and K5 railway guns. The bombardment was unavoidable and left the Allies in a state of total destruction. This incredible kit from Rocket models perfectly depicts the German 28cm Kanone 3 Auf Lastentraeger E-75 in its entirety with its fully moveable cannon, adjustable vehicle height for travel and firing modes, integrally molded handrails, and water-slide decals. Order now!

[Kit Features]: 

  • Moveable 28cm Cannon
  • Adjustable vehicle height for travel/firing modes
  • The handrails are molded in one piece, making assembly easy
  • Water-slide decals

Assembly Guide

Skill Level 3:

Basic Skills Required

Kits rated as skill level 3 are traditional model kits that require all basic modeling skills to complete. This includes cutting parts from runners and trimming or sanding them prior to use, assembling them with cement, and the use of paint to complete them.

To properly complete a level 3 kit, you should have at least a basic set of modeling supplies, including plastic nippers, a hobby knife, files and/or sandpaper, plastic cement, instant (cyanoacrylate) cement (for resin, soft-vinyl or metal parts), painting supplies including brushes, paint, thinner and masking tape, tweezers and possibly decal softener for applying decals to difficult areas.

Kits in this class are not suitable for small children unless there is complete parental supervision. Adults who have never before completed a plastic model kit may want to read one of the many excellent modeling guides available at most hobby shops before trying to build one of these kits.

Skill level 3 kits include a very large portion of our catalog. Most traditional plastic model kits fall into this category.

Cement Required

cement

This item requries the use of cement (glue) to complete. For injection-plastic kits, use the weld-type clear cement specifically designed for use on styrene plastic. For some smaller parts, you may wish to use instant type (cyanoacrylate) glue. For resin, white metal, soft vinyl and photo-etched materials, the use of instant type cement is strongly recommended.

A SAFETY NOTE ABOUT INSTANT CEMENT

Parents and all modelers should note that instant cement (cyanoacrylate) bonds skin instantly. While this in itself is not harmful, forcibly attempting to pull the skin apart can tear the skin and cause injury. If you or your child happens to inadvertenly glue themselves with instant cement, don't pull, but use remover for instant cement, or nail polish remover to dissolve the bond instead.

Painting Required

This model kit or accessory must be painted in order to achieve a realistic appearance.

Paint

While there are slight differences depending on the country you live in, there are generally three types of paint available for modeling: Acrylic, Enamel and Lacquer. Their characteristics are described below.
