Tamiya StuG IV
Let's get things rolling
Here's my entry - first released in 1976, a true classic:
As mentioned in the main thread, I already built one of these in 2008...ah, the memories
Details aren't that bad:
Well, mostly...
Here's where I am right now:
I'm not doing a speed build, although I probably should. I'll be adding Zimmerit, which will conventiently take care of that hole in the side...

Re: Tamiya StuG IV
Wait! Waitwaitwait! - Didn't I build one of those too ? Without Zimmerit and with a really pathetic Revell solid colour hand painted camo?
If I did I threw it away years ago now... a shame since it would have been cool to compare !
Best regards

Re: Tamiya StuG IV
The party has started
I will have to get going soon, though it is No. 1 son's birthday today, so I am delivering a chocolate cake and presents, so it will be later tonight.
Nice start Philipp, come on Raoul, get that IV D out of the box

Re: Tamiya StuG IV
Creeping ahead at glacial speed compared to everyone else:
Mostly to blame is a somewhat weird cold I've had since Thursday, but also Revell putty which takes a whole day to dry before it can be safely sanded....Oh, and the Zimmerit it will need. I really should have picked the Crusader
