Restored french 75mm shell

[emlyn]

This is the first shell ive ever restored and I dont think its turned out to bad. It came to me in pretty poor condition, quite badly pitted and the top of the shell looked like it had bee cut off and then welded back on. I used milliput for filler mainly because ive used it lots before, and painted it using Revell enamels.

Hi emlyn

Nice. But, just a suggestion : with mastic, you can fill the holes before painting.
