i recently got dragon's 1/35 SdKfz.250/8 NEU 7.5cm KwK.37 (L/24) Stummel (quite a mouthful there) and i'm planning on having it knocked out in an ardennes diorama, along with tamiya's m4a3 sherman. so the question i have is, were these things even used in the ardennes? and if so what kind of camouflage would they have? pardon my lack of historical knowledge

thanks,
zheng wei

hey zheng, i bought the Tamiya M4A3 about a year ago and i just made mine a destroyed tank in the ardennes, hatches open and a destroyed track. it actually just got displayed at a local hobby shop, its a great kit. have fun with the build!

hi jacob,
that sounds really interesting, do you have any pictures? if so feel free to post them on this thread, i would be interested to see them thanks for sharing

Hello Zheng Wei,
I haven't been able to find any pictures of the Stummel in the Ardennes but that doesn't mean there weren't any there during the battle. There were certainly 250 "Neu" vehicles there...so why not a 250/8. Use some artistic license and go for it. Good luck!

Jeff

oh i meant photos of your sherman hahaha but yeah artistic license is good
