Hey Guys,

I will proberly start doing bits & bobs as i am still trying to finish my 1st dio & model.

Cheers mike

Another teaser
This should give you an idea of what's happening to my StuG


(Just ignore the Panther)

Hi Conor,

Looks great & what do you mean ignore the panther!! That is like not liking Stugs impossible!!

Mike

Well I can't very well build a Panther for this campaign

I'm actually building one now though...

Very true LOL

Ok Guys here is my start photo taken yesterday, it will be a mostly OOB Build but it does include Echelon Decals that the seller included

I won't be able to start until Monday nt when I get to my 1st hotel on my road trip next week and that will probably be just cutting and cleaning those track links
PS Jeff Ill bring the camera but not the computer so no more photos in post until next friday

Just kiddin' on the camera buddy!

But nice choice on the StuG!

Starter Pictures. Given that both have had some work done to them already, I'm going to try to do two kits. Today's front page was pretty non-descript so I went with the sports page. I'll take build photos as I go and post them in bunches.





Questions? Comments?

Alex,

Your off to a roaring start can't wait to see what you do to them both!!

Sal,

I never taken a kit on a road trip does it always ask are we their yet??

Mike

Well my kit has arrived. I will take pictures and sign up when i have time.

I started the Italeri's Stug IV this afternoon.
Worked on the suspension parts, so far not much done.
I'll take some pics tomorrow.

Still wondering paint scheme & decals.
I might try a similar scheme I did on a SturmTiger a few months ago.

It will be great to have you on board Marc! What kit did you decide on?

Looking forward to those pics John. The StuG IV will be nicely represented here it looks.

Man,

It's only a few days old & I'm already getting left in the dust lol

Jeff, Dragon StuG F Orange box.

Not even. It only started on the 15th.(yesterday)

Thanks Jeff.
I will post them tomorrow.

Marc did you read the answer I posted on the constructive feedback forum, about the Stug fender's issue ?
Keep me posted if you need any help ok ?

SWEET!!!!

LOL Marc,

In my part of the world today is the 17th, maybe if I need an extra day to finish i can fly to your part of the world lol the speed I build at that maybe adviseable

Cheers Mike

Yes i did see it. Thanks.

I thought so.
Flying here to finish would really make your build expensive!

Would flying to the states be called an (After Market add on) or just criminally insane for wasting future modeling $$$

Lol

Well, I had hoped to have some progress pics today but got called into work, then hit the river but at least I got a pic of the kits together. This campaign looks really cool so far. I wanted to join with a Stug F as well. It's going to have some winterketten tracks. I'll use the latter roadwheel and square mantlet with RB L48 gun. I'm toying with putting it on the Tamiya B kit as only the superstructure is different I think. That way I could still do an old Bandai D version another day. Any tips/info welcome!

Hi all,

I've settled on a Stug III Ausf.G


I have a bunch of PE as well.


Now I need to hit the books and pick a theater and unit.

Nate

Hi Nate,

Cool looking kit will watch with interest how it goes together, would like to add to my stash

Mike

Have you guys checked out the new kit, the Sturmgeschütz III (Fl) flamethrower tank from Cyber Hobby? Here is the review for it https://armorama.kitmaker.net/review/7764 right here on ARMORAMA.

I am all StuGed out or it would be my build for sure. I might pick it up as it's supposed to be a limited edition but since I have announced and planned my choice I'll stick to it.

But that doesn't mean that there cannot be a Sturmgeschütz Build PT II? Right?
