Dragon Imperial StuG III Ausf F/8

Beautiful Andy. Those cables look real

Peter- LOL Glad you liked the cables. Love those MIG products too. Appreciate you following my WIP since day one...

Andy

Super job on the tools sir, echo Pete they all look very real indeed. Though why you trackything guys insist upon putting the whole thing together and then painting the detail is beyond my feeble imagination.

Cheers

Tim

Thats great,

I'm buying that

Tim- Thanks mate! I know... I have tried both approaches painting the details before and after being glued to the hull. I personally find it easier to do after because of the PE clamps I use. CA glue eats thru the paint or peel off so it was best to glue them on while naked and clean.

David- Thanks! Appreciate you stopping by!

Johnny- No matter how often I hear from you it is ALWAYS good "hearing" from you despite my deafness. LOL

Hi Andy

The tow cables look great and really nice job on the tools.

Jim

Really nice work Andy, very inspirational.

Si

Jimbo- Thanks buddy!

Si- Appreciate you stopping by... thanks!

Guys- Another quick update... applied more rust on spare tracks and they are finally attached to the rear of StuG.

I am going to add more Jerry cans and place them between the spare wheels. Right now it only has one can.

Also I worked on the mufflers. You really can not see the mufflers unless you pick it up to look.

At model contests, I always wonder if judges will look at mufflers even tho they are invisible? Like Ben suggested, play it safe if there is an aggressive judge... you never know!

If I have the chance to do it all over again, I would have added styrene strips to cover the gap just above the mufflers. Too late now... I will spray black paint inside to make it look better.

Andy

. Looking superb, sir. Like the spare tracks.

Cheers

Tim
