1/35 Regelbau type 650 gun bunker (Atlantikwall)
This article is part of a series:
This will be only a third of the entire bunker
(complete bunker aprox 51+ cm in 1/35 scale )
Have made this R650 type before, but without the war damage.
See picture .
The gun is schratsbuild,
Only found a hand full of drawings of the actual gun... its a Canon de 105 mle 1913 Schneider ,so the gun was no problem only the rear is build with the minor detail i could find,but then again only the front part is visible.

I need two doors for this part of the Bunker,
So I have made one... and two resin copy's
Definitely unseeable!
But i know there there,and i can use them for future bunker builds
Next, making a mold from it.

Found this pic ,
looks like a piece of the shield is missing ( i like it )
Makes sense with the damage that one of the grenades made on the left side off embrasure.
That's it for today,otherwise i might overdo the Damage.
