Painted test shots: Looking for an original use for the Hat German PaK36, I decided to paint this one up as a 45mm Russian ATG. First made in 1937, this was apparently a direct copy of the German Pak36, upgunned to 45mm but otherwise almost identical. (If you can see 8mm difference in the barrel at this scale, you've been playing with toy soldiers too long!)
The Wikipedia article shows some photos here.
I substituted the crew from the Hat F22 76mm Field Gun. Buy them all, and you can mix and match!

These test shots are no longer available as the set has been remolded.
Many thanks to Mr. Vearncombe.
