Looks like it came together nicely, look forward to seeing it with paint on! The F/8 is one of my favorites in the StuG III family.

Great build Spud
I remember using AA resin tracks on a Hetzer, lots of shouting and swearing before I realized my 'Super Glue' was not that super at all ;D A new tube sorted it in no time.

Cheers
Steve
