Our first release of 2024 consists of the 1:100th scale version of Vickers 105/22 howitzer.
This was a Spanish Army standard field gun manufactured in Reinosa under license, using British 18 and 25 pounder carriages.
As with most of Spanish ordnance, Vickers guns were more or less evenly divided among both sides at the outbreak of SCW, being used on all fronts.

Unlike its 1:72nd scale counterpart (https://minairons.eu/en/1-72-scale-artillery-world-war-ii/709-1-72-vickers-105mm-howitzer-8436545321072.html), which is white metal cast in several parts to be assembled, this new 15mm cannon is DLP 3D-printed as a single piece, so requiring no assembly at all.
It can be ordered from here (https://minairons.eu/en/1-100-scale-artillery-spanish-civil-war/1484-1100-vickers-105mm-gun-8436545324455.html).
Best New Year to you all!
