Yes! You don't even need the after market barrel. Tracks would be nice. The gun was well done (for its time) and small details would make it a nice kit with little effort.

Hey Brandus,

Take a look at this article: Tamiya Marder II.
Hope this helps and inspires you!

Cheers,

Funny, I'm working on this kit now! :-)
So far it seems like a nice little kit. Decent detail, good fit, fun to work on too! (but you can say that about all armor models, right? )
I've glued together the gun barrel, gun shield, roadwheels, and interior panels. Have encountered only a few minor gaps on the interior panels. (more due to a gluing error of mine than a kit fault)
I'm sure I'll work on it a little more after I've completed plans for my scratchbuilt spaceship!
