1/16 foot plate

Hi Lads, build is a go with the stug3, does anyone know where in the uk I can get a metal foot plate , and what size I need? had a mess up with side armour and it looks a mess so might add metal ones. thanks glen

I had a Panzer III a while back that I converted to an Ausf N, in doing so I ground off the moulded tools and was left with a smooth patch. In the end I sanded off all of the checker plate, cut some brass mesh to size and glued that on, it came up pretty good.

Another trick is to sand it smooth, and use a scalpel/ruler to scribe new diamonds into the surface, when painted you will hardly be able to spot the difference.

Hi Rob,
thanks mate, might fill in holes with p83, sand flush, then use some fine filler like milliput and do as you said and re make
