this is a Stug III A in winter white wash!!! Don't worry guys it'll get dirty soon enough. The flag is as Archer dry transfer on a peice of lead doil and will be on the finished model!!!


comments and criticism is welcome!!! stug

Another beauty in the makng Steve! Cant wait to see it finished. That Flag looks cool! have they a webpage somewhere?

Great battle damage,How big a mine was it that blew off all of the running gear?
Don't forget the wire from the side marker lights that runs from the back of the lights across the top of the fender,nad down to the area behind the front head lights.
Did you use the kit gun,or go for an A/M one? Jordi L/24 's have the muzzle cap included.

LOOKING GOOD STUG ! I can't wait to start mine ( Ausf B ).
Look forwrd to seeing your's finished .."in all it's glory ! " Nice job with the dry transfer to the lead foil. That is certainly very effective and add's to the realism.

Nice job, Steve. This is the Dragon/DML kit? Are you using the kit link to link tracks?
Can"t wait to see the finiished model.

Hey dude..
Get some relly fine wet 'n' dry paper and sand the corners to the base coat... Looks really good so far...As I expect young man

Nice Stug Steve and expecially the added touch of the flag. With the weathering it will be an excellent addition to your past endeavors! :-)




P.S. I just finished reading Rommels War in Africa by Hecdkmann the british were quite "taken" with the Stug lll auf A when it made it's first appearence; and so were the Russians. Personally I think it's a tough looking bastard one of my favorites.

Only thing I have to say well two things wash is too even Steven make a little change to finish. Great job on the model tho YOU ARE THE MAN DUDE . Could be pics tho check out MIssing links and check out anything from MIG ,Dinesh and of cause the master Marijn Van Gils or this man who in my book is the real master Jean Baptiste Verlhac master on winter camo they are the best of the best.
Cause you most likely will make me eat my words when you are finished eating words now CHOMP CHOMP CHICKEN SAFARI TIME

PS Actually great job just a little friendly ribbing

I really like this. I can't wait to see it finished. Please keep us updated...

Nice work on the variation in tone in the white paint. Are you planning to drybrush the base colors over the white? Only suggestion at this stage would be to darken the running gear, I think it would be unlikely for a crew to paint white behind the wheels...I'd go for a dark muddy brown, it'll contrast nicely with the whitewash. Keep us updated!

That's a nice Stug Ausf A, Stug III Ausf F. I especially like the flag on the doil. #:-) God, you need spend some time with the family, Karl, F15E, now this, come on! Don't be a nerd, all you guys know is modelling!!!!

Enough said, great looking Stug, now I need to go to church with my FAMILY and then maybe I can work on the office of my phantom more... #:-)

Phantom did I hear not another plane model #:-) #:-)

GREAT WORK CONGRATULATIONS

Thanks guys and she is far from finished this is one of those kits you touch only when your realy in the mood!!! I'm plannig on a lite spray of the base coat along some of the edges, but heard alittle denatured alcohol will have the same effect as rain of the white wash so I havn't decided on which method to use!!! as far as mud in the suspension I was going to do the cake method as I did on the Panther D. Should be interesting to see where this kit takes my sanity when its finished!! Stug
