Impressive work there Andy. My big fat fingers can't work with small stuff like that.

Hi Xrad and Allen, Thanks for your comments . every time I make a hinge I say thats the last time . I dont realy enjoy making them as its to fidley . But I have the other side to do and possibly the C hook clamps to ?

Thanks Andy

Hi Ive added the rear frame and the skirt mounting rails . I just need to add the renforcing rail in the rear bracket and add the track guard mounted hooks. The rear frame is all styrene , the skirt mounting brackets are brass and the rails are styrene.

Cracking job Andy. Once you get paint on this it will be outstanding. What scheme are you thinking of doing.
Alan

Looking good Andy keep up the good work.

Hi Alan. Ive got a picture of a Stug from around Normandy in the typical three colour cammo . Its very light coloured / faded so something like that I think . Ive started the skirt pannels now more pictures to come.

Andy

Sounds good to me Andy. I like that worn faded look and hope to use it on all mine if ever the weather warms up. Looking forward to more pictures. All the best for now.

Hi Alen , same here mate Im dying to get my Panther A and Tiger sprayed and this Stug . I have to spray in a part of my dads workshop that isnt heated . Although hes set up his wood turning lathe in there now . But I will get them done eventually . Ive been working on the skirt pannels its a bit tricky but Im getting there . Ive fitted the track guard mounting points and the hooks at the top of the skirts . Ive got to do the bottom ones and make some fine adjustments to the top ones . Im not making any tooling clamps on this one as I hate removing them when there on that bumpy/grip surface like on the Pz.III and Stug III . I have made working tow cable mounts and I am thinking of making working C clamp holders as Ive removed the S ones as they were not fitted to my model .

Andy

Its coming along really great Andy! A beautiful Stug you've built there. I can't wait to see some paint on it!

Cheers,
Rik
