Hi Guys,
Some images of my Sonderverband 288 Stug III Ausf D. It is the Trumpeter kit with Revell tracks and roadwheels and scratchbuilt details.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for that. The Revell tracks and roadwheels fitted very easily, the only thing to watch is the pitch of the teeth on the drive sprocket and adjust the track sag to fit the single track links.

Steve,

Excellent build! Super job on the weathering. Really like the paint fading. I agree with Karl, it looks like a 1/35th scale build.

Amazing Job! I really like it. I agree I thought it was posted in the wrong area for a minute (1/35 dropped in by mistake). Really impressive build.
