Here is my nearly finished 10.5cm Sturmhaubitze Ausf. G with Zimmerit from Dragon, the only thing left to do I think is add the towing cables and a little bit more stowage, but any other suggestions would be appreciated!

There appears to be a seem line on the rocket. The stwoage and the figure look glossy. The take its self is very well done. I never new that the numbers were applied to any barrel in the German army.

Hi Matt
That Panzerfaust seam line really does stick out like a sore thumb huh? lol. As for the figure, its an old Tamiya one I'm using for now, I'm currently waiting on an Alpine figure in winter gear. As for the ID numbers on the barrel, the tank belongs to the 202nd Sturmgeschutz Brigade, somewhere on the eastern front, 1945, its the first time I've seen them on the barrel too.

I've always liked the howitzer version of the StuG with the 105. Now I've definitely made up my mind on which direction to go with on my 1/16.

By the way ... nice tank!

Hi!

Pretty cool, over all. I liked the numbers on the barrel - not often seen on builds and only seldom done in real (but there were some, so...!).

That 'faust disturbs me in more ways than one... the already-mentioned seam is a real woof. But, in real life, any German would be staring at it for a different reason: The handle is up, meaning it's "cocked and hot"! Rattle that bad boy around a little and bump it against some hatch-latch or other object, trip that leaver and BANG! All sorts of fun would bust loose - right on deck! Just FYI: a traveling, safe 'faust is handle-down. The rocketeer pulls the handle up to cock his weapon and to use that handle as a sight. He squeezes the latteral portion behind that up-right bit and trips the spring-clapper to fire his round off.

Living dangerously!

Clean up a couple of things and this will be a fine build indeed!
