Is there concept art for the Howitzer?

There is a lot of concept art floating around for both in-game and cut RA2/YR units. Has anyone seen one for the Howitzer? I want to look at it to get some more of an idea of what they intended to do with the unit and maybe get inspired about what to do with it in my mod.

Well the one in the files is in an Allied Scheme, and was going to be for Korea, or the "Asian Alliance" internally, although most mods give it to the Soviets to counter the prism tank.

Can't recall seeing any concept art for it though.

No concept art for the howitzer as far as I know.

The voxel for the Howitzer is the same as the tank destroyer but with the barrel pointing upwards. So you could use the tank destroyer concept art as a reference...

Thanks. I'm now semi convinced that the Howitzer was supposed to be a (cartoonish depiction of a) M1978 Koksan, in line with other unused assets that suggest that Korea was originally intended to be North Korea.
