Preparing for the 1916 Battle of Verdun, the German army emplaced a Gamma-Gerät 42cm howitzer. Bill replicated the final work using a Panzer Concepts 1/35 scale kit of the gun as well as 3D-printed and scratchbuilt parts for the surrounding equipment and Celluclay over insulation foam for the groundwork. He painted the model with Tamiya acrylics and weathered it with artist oils.
