They started a StuG GB on one of my other sites that's four months long. I bought this kit as a parts donator so some things might be missing?  I'll just make do. I installed a set of Magic Tracks to replace the bands to start with. While these dry i'll start on the top side.    Uncle Tony |

Tamiya StuG as a parts donator? Hahahaha. I built this one a while back, went together in about a day. Typical Tamiya awesomeness.

Andy it's a good one for folks in a slump or back to the hobby type but I think the painting in this case
will be the best part for me.
I've got a Dragon Early Pz IV StuG that would've been more my speed.I wanted to do a Gray for a change of pace.

The lower hull and suspension primed,shadow coated and the Life Color Dark Gray applied. The tracks painted and track wash applied. In the morning i'll fade the gray to give it depth and install the tracks so the upper hull can be put on. Long day,i'm done and the lights turned off. Later My Friends Tony lee |
