Nothing to do with how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

Resicast have released two kits in 1/35 scale: 18pdr, and 18pdr & Limber

Don't mean to be picky but the barrel looks a bit underscale to me - on the 18 Pounder Mark I the barrel and receiver were about the same diameter.

Here's a Mark I (1906) at Fort Lytton.

Regards,

Charlie

The model looks more like a Mk II to me, in which case I'd say the barrel is about right:

The Resicast site indicates the kit is supplied with both barrel types; an appreciated bonus.  It appears they've gotten everything right with this kit; to include correct wheels and an ammunition caisson.
