Aloha,
I've enlisted. Been on a two year hiatus and need to get back in the game. I have a slightly started Jagdluther from the Dust series, if this would be an acceptable entry. Otherwise I have a Marder IIIM to go with.

Zon

Zon,
I had to look up Jagdluther cause I had no idea. Please feel free to build either of your possibilities.

Best Wishes,

Gaz

Thanks Gaz.

Hey Everyone!
Only a month to go!

Let's talk about Marders:

All photos included for discussion only!


Despite their many negative points like poor crew protection, they've always been a personal favorite. I want to build them all, eventually.


I built the Tamiya example of this one when I was a young teen.


I've always thought the IIIM to be the sexiest of them. Like a Corvette with a 75mm PaK.


There should be laws against this stuff! I mean, how am I supposed to live without buying it?!?

Of course, when you look up tank hunters you find some strange ones:

If it weren't for the tracks and bogies, I woulda thought some guy built this in his garage.


And how bout those innovative Swedes? I guess there's no getting under-the-gun of the S-Tank.


Yup! Swedes again.




This one looks to scary to be real.


And last but not least...that 38t chassis just keeps on giving!

Gaz

I wish that T28 was a Tank Hunter/Tank Destroyer.

I have one of those kits just gathering dust!






Jeff

Jeff,
Why not propose an SPG campaign? I'd love to see you build it, and I just picked up a Brummbar this weekend.

Gaz

Yeah... I don't have the energy to lead Campaigns anymore but thanks for the encouragement!

I'll just wait for you to propose it.





Jeff

Clever plan!

I've joined. I have a Sci-Fi kit I intend to build for this.

Peter,
Thank you for joining! I will be interested in seeing your build.

Gaz

Hi Everyone!
More photos!

What a beast!


Another one I didn't know about! The ASU-57


The Archer Tank Destroyer




Even the Swiss!


Talk about add-ons!


This one would scream: "make me a diorama!" if it were possible to make credible dust flying through the air.








See, you can lower your 88'.

And last but not least:

The People's tank hunting weapon.

Only three weeks to go!

Gaz

I started on the ASU-57 by Maquette. Dog kit but only one in 1/35th at the time.

It's so small it feels just like 1/72nd scale!




Jeff

Thanks for the pics Gaz. I may try a wingy thing for a change

Just joined! My first campaign , very excited. Definitely going to be a figure.


Thanks for the great idea!

Cheers

Lewis

Guys,
Thanks for the replies.

Tat, planes are cool!

Matthew, I'd think a bunker buster would want a bigger shell. That doesn't mean I'm right, tho.

Jeff, if it's that small, I'll avoid it for sure. I'm all thumbs.

Lewis, awesome! More figures is good!

Gaz

Hi,
I join also with Jagdpanzer Elefant by Italeri. I'm going to add some goods, aber PE, JR gun barrel, Friulmodel tracks and Tamiya zimmerit. It's very old model so a lot of work ahead of me.

Pawel,
Glad to have you along! Looking forward to see what you do to the Elefant.

Gaz

Don't you just love it when new kits show up at your doorstep and you tear open the box like a savage kid during Christmas?



Oh yeah...its the Stug Lyfe for me bros. Peace!

Hope to see some good StuG's, Bryan. I like the scheme on that one.

Gaz

Bryan I did a built review of that kit a few years ago nice kit but if I remember correctly the gun demensions are too big for the fighting compartment
Maybe you will have better luck than I did.

I found your review. It'll come in handy knowing Dragon and their penchant for including nasty surprises in their directions.

I got this kit pretty cheap in a sale (was around $30 with shipping) and it will be my first Stug III kit so I guess I'm kinda nervous.

Shhhh... WOT knows NOTHING!!! Just ask Sergeant Shultz!

Besides I believe you're right about the Tortoise (A39) tank as it was their heavy assault tank designed in World War II, but never put into production. It was developed only for clearing heavily fortified bunkers just like the US T-28 tank was.




Jeff

here's my entry.
AFV Nashorn

Jeff, we'll have to save the Tortoise for an upcoming SPG campaign.

David, looking forward to seeing your AFV Club kit. With so many Nashorns out there, I have no idea which one to buy.
