Good looking Stug. What are the letters on the skirts?
looks good, what camo are you going to give it?
how are you going to paint the lower hull and running gear with the Schuratzen on or did you just temporarly tac it for the photos?
Very good job.
Are the tracks from the kit or aftermarket?
Looking good Mirko, just one thing. I don't want to be nit picky, but the StuG IV was produced from December 1943, and would not have been painted in 'Panzer' Grey, but in Dunkelgelb, and then probably in camouflage. But if you cover the whole vehicle in a 'new' white wash, that should not be a real problem.

well i know italeri paint schemes ussually sucks, but mine has 5 diferent ofers, 2 of them are panzergray, one ardennes (with white stripes) and one grossdeutchland?
could it be that they out on 2 wrong schemes?
Mirko, I think the instructions are half cocked as usual..
Panzergrey with white stripes in the Ardennes? I think we can discount that option. Possibily Darkgreen with a locally applied whitewash instead of the normal camouflage, as some vehicles were painted darkgreen at the factory at that time, but not grey. Italieri has probably looked at one old black and white photograph, and decided that the vehicle was grey...![]()

As for GrossDeutschland, not sure about their deployment in the Ardennes (I'm at work, without my references), but again, unlikely to be Panzergrey at any rate. Still, don't let my ramblings distract from the fine work you have done so far. If you are going to add the white wash, as it would have been just applied, you could cover the entire vehicle without the underlying paint showing through yet, as the wash would not yet have started to wear off. The bottom half could also be covered with a lovely layer of mud and dirt colored snowy slush, as the conditions in the Ardennes where rather muddy.
