I am still liking this very much. I can hardly wait to see the finished diorama. It will be stunning.

Love the blackening on the breech and muzzle.

Get everything mounted up, dying to see the finished product.

Question Christos, did you paint the gun carriage with acrylics and if so... how did you achieve the wood grain? It looks really, really great.

The Cannon looks great especially the way you've painted the broken wheel. I hope you won't be burdened down by the weight of all the medals you are going to win.
Best wishes, Gary.
