Atak Model - Zimmerit for 1/16 Stug III

Post by lmcq11 »

With the new 1/16 Stug IIIs coming out, it is good to see Atak Model providing Zimmerit conversion kits in resin to cut and to glue directly on the armor.

Designed to fit the Heller/Trumpeter/Monochrome kit, my guess is that it can be used with some adaptation to the Takom/Das Werk and the Heng Long models.

Because the Stug III does not have large flat surfaces like a Panther or a King Tiger, it has always been more difficult to apply Zimmerit paste (putty) on a Stug with its many small surfaces, armor angles, around the front hatches, rear deck and behind the suspension. It will surely be simpler than cutting ourselves the sections from the Atak zimmerit plain sheets. Take not that the kit does not seem to offer zimmerit plates for the Schurzen.

So far, Atak provides two styles of Zimmerit;
