I'm waiting for someone to build that verbatim, then claim the jackstands are Walker Feet for local motivation and the wheels for long-distance rolling (which is exactly what I'd tell other people's children, if I was at that museum)

Looks like Sergej Pogrebnjak (aka SerijVolk) did an outstanding 1:35th scale build already of the Krupp Schuman mobile carriage gun
