This is a 10 year old shelf queen. I thought it was completed, but when I was cleaning up the work room I found this and a StuG A conversion I had worked on but never completed. I have added pin washes, some streaking, chips and scratches, oil stains and started to pigment work. The base kit is the venerable Tamiya StuG kit, converted to a Aug 44 model with the addition of a DML roof, modification of the weld joints on the engine deck. addition of a coax mg and a brakeless barrel from Aber. The schurtzen are also from Aber, the tracks Fruils.

This is my process for deep chips:

Personally I'd take a link out of those tracks, but that's just me. But a well-deserved karma + 1 from me.

Looking good John.

Actually there are no shelves. All projects are stored in tupperware containers, usually one container per project. This one was actually with a StuG III A conversion I did on the Tamiya B kit.
