8.8 Flak 36

The 8.8 may be the most famous artillery piece in history. Certainly it was regarded as something of a wonder weapon by the allies. There is an old joke that every allied soldier believed every German tank to be a tiger. Well it could also be argued they believed every gun firing at them was an 8.8.

I already had one 8.8 painted so when Chris told me he wanted to play a game using his Matilda force I figured it was time to paint up the second. Here is the result along with some flame marks to decorate the tanks they kill.
