coming soon: 12,8 cm Flak 40 German heavy AA-gun in 1/144 06/52

A friend of mine asked me for a special model, the heavy Flak 12,8 cm Flak 40. 
This was a very deadly weapon, which was used in the role as an anti aircraft cannon. Most known is the twin version, which was installed on all Flak Towers, in Berlin, in Hamburg and in Wien (Vienna).
But he wanted the single version, so I started the search. On the internet I do not found that much information, most is written about the 12,8 cm twin Flak and it is hard to find some pictures of the standard version.
The standard 12,8 Flak came with two different versions. At the beginning it was equipped with the cross frame, as used with the 8,8 Flak. Later the Germany tried to mobilize the Flak and changed to a different frame. At the moment I will do only the cross frame, maybe later I will add the second version.

So here my first preshots, I still have to scale it and modify some details.
