I like the StuG in all variants, mustr say that I doint build them much
Do you apply a simple interiour in it because the hatches are open?

I added a picture of A C/D that I build some years ago with a white wash ( just trying to made a winter camo :-) ) doint look at the red flag :-)))))



Looking forward when he is done.
Good luck

Tuna,good start.
Add a very thin piece of styrene under each rear fender flap,under the holes.This was a piece of metal that would keep the flap from going down onto the track.
When the flap was lifted,this piece of metal would still be there.

Yes, it's the Dragon Stug.. I opened the hatches cause I have those DML figures... only thing is now, how can I stay OOB.. I may have to throw some junk in the interior...

Finish will will be Gray, Gray, and more Gray

Hi

I built the DML StugIIIB, and loved it. Crew figures will work to block off the view of the interior, so nothing is needed in there. Be careful though, the hatches need fasteners added, and the C/D had things reversed from the A and B.

I take it you haven't glued the upper hull to the lower hull yet? The big gaps give that away!
You'll never get the indy links on otherwise.

Cheers
Andy
