That's a sharp-looking Stug. Great job.

Yes, indeed: stay with that camouflage pattern. You have done it so well.

For hand painted camo, that looks like it was a stencil. Looks great.

No….no use of stencils, all is brush painted without any help of any accesories!
The only help I had, was this pic of a StuH which I found on the net and made me decide to try this camo pattern:

But that was the only pic I had.
So to camo the entire assault gun is a real PITA, I can assure you!
No example from the front, top or rear side of that vehicle.
But it can and will be done!

10/10 from me mate, that camo is so ornate it’s almost a shame to weather it !

Just finished with the camo on the entire assault gun.
The motordeck will be filled with boxes, rolls, Jerry cans, spare tracks and so and on top of that a bunch of Grenadiers.
So not much of the motordeck will be seen.
Same up front of the Superstructure which will be covered with fouliage too.
