Really excellent work fabricating that. I thought of trying to make a working crane for my Sturmtiger. Probably just as well I didn't as I knock the Torro one off quite regularly running it around the field

Yeah, I took the Sturmtiger out to the battle area this weekend and didn't bother with the crane. Didn't want to break it off.

Excellent brass work with the crane and mudguards, Herman! They look great and they'll be nice and strong, too.

Thanks folks, it’s getting to where I need it now.
Tools are waiting and soon the lust-filled scent of primer ;)

Eau-D-Primeuer !! It’s a thing :think: :shifty:

Been raining a lot here and things that Aussies cannot do, well the Queensland ones anyway, is drive a &$$?, n car in rain :wtf:
Kiwis and Brits?? If we didn’t drive in rain we wouldn’t go anywhere :/
I’m so shagged getting home that tanking is not a good idea!
Hope to get primer on the big box on the weekend if it stops raining.
At least it’s still warm, not like the old country when it rains.
Here the stuff falls vertically, over there is at least 45 degrees of driven ferocity

Well its damp and humid but a good blast with the hair drier soon sorted that out.
Primer is OOONNNNN :thumbup:
Now at least its a big RED box rather than multi colours.

Yeah it does look a bit Meng-Toon tank !!
Overall the Sturmtiger is/was a weird gun platform, too late for its intended operating purpose, and too few to make any difference to the state of things by the time it did hit the battlefield.
Plus, one Fugly duckling :wtf:
