Thanks Gents, it’s good enough without chucking a load of cash on stuff from overseas and waiting.
While I was waiting for my mate to paint the crosses and numbers, I was checking out his stuff as ya do.
He slid open one wardrobe ……..
One side was crammed with figures and accessories
The other with Tamiya full option kits, and HL V6 king tigers and others
That’s on top of 4 huge storage bins full of highly collectible figures.
His garage full of half finished projects, and a spare room with completed Tamiya tanks.
No wife and kids

I found a space for the tow ropes. Kind of chucked in wherever was convenient for the crew.
Ordinarily I would have used the 2 rear towing points integrated into the track tensioners, but they are not really designed to be easily manipulated once in place.
I might still use coffee filter paper as tarps over a bit of the stowage, but I still need to get the right ones. tea bag material is good, but not big enough. The tea bag ones I have used before by pre painting them in the desired shade, then fixing them in place by using tamiya flat Clear XF-86 maneuvered into place with a brush as required.
The coffee filters I hope behave the same.

"While I was waiting for my mate. [...] he slid open one wardrobe …." That's way too much, even more than my basement. He needs to get rid of some to make space for more. Tell him to send me the Tamiya Jagdpanzer IV. I will pay the postage.

Herman!
Weathering is spot on (as usual. ) One of the Best looking StuGs in some time! Looking forward to the StuK.

Thanks Mr wolf, thats a bold statement !
I will say its taking on a marquee position in the collection.
At some point I have a cunning plan to do a StuH 42 with the mammoth muzzle brake.
Thanks for continuing to look in.
