looks really good only one thing.... its too clean
how heavy is it?
It will get dirty as soon as it's finished and ready do to 'its job' 
Currently it is 5kg's. And I guess with the radio and all paint on it it will be around 6kg. The 'real deal' one is 18kg....
With an A-frame attached the weight will be ofcourse more. And the A-frame 'attachment' is a war-time periode-correct option.

Give me a big enough hammer and a place to stand and I could fix the world.
i'll kill a man in a fair fight or if i think he's going to start a fair fight or over a woman or.......
a problem shared is a problem halved ,but an advantage shared is no advantage at all
if a job's not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well

Indeed. We are still playing airsoft and (for me) I am not real soldier.
So, I continued some weeks ago but forgot to post an update.
White 'ground' paint.
Just painted (and thus a bit shimmering)
Current status:
With A-frame attached:
Still todo:
- repaint it with another layer (only one layer applied)
- figure out how I am going to do the 'microphone'. Making one myself, or using a modern-throat-mic (which is historic correct as they used throatmics with these radios back-then).
that looks superb ,well done you should be pleased with that.

Thanks for the heads-up. After May 26th I will have some in-game pictures of the radio
Excellent effort
And the last layer of paint:
Now it has to dry and then I will re-attached all the small stuff. On the pictures it is still wet on some spots. But it looks damn good 
And for the ones who don't know how 'the real deal' looks, it's like this:
Very good work

Used the radio in-game yesterday during one of our skirms. Not much problems when carrying it at my back, only some minor muscle pain (myalgia) in my shoulders.
Only thing left is to make the control-box to hide my PTT button in.
Great stuff
