Any pointer on Reference photos for Stug III E will be very much appreciated. Tried searching. I get more in-box reviews rather than reference pics. Help Please.... Any Build logs also may help.

Thanks in Advance and have a Great Weekend....

To add clarity to the request......

I am building this old Dragon HobbyBoss kit.


I could not find many build logs of this particular kit. Please post any pics if you have built this. Found some points on flash and shallow moldings etc.... Are there any major inaccuracies / issues with this kit?

Thanks in Advance.

Isn't it based on the old Dragon 6033 Ausf F which in turn based on the Gunze-Sangyo mold? Maybe try searching build blogs for those?

That's a great suggestion. I will look for those old builds and discussion threads. Thanks.
