Finnish StuG III Ausf G "sturmi"

[Dr. Armor_72]

Dear Fellows,

This is my another new project and again StuG III. Last time it was bulgarian StuG III and now it will be finnish StuG III. And it will be another scale i.e. 1/35. So, it is quite known kit from Tamiya (35310) and I realised immidiately that most of parts in it must be removed and changed onto 3d, PE etc. Now this project looks somehow like on those photos!

Oh! Those clamps! These are sticks from cotton buds without cotton! Really it is very important to have them on, so that you will have at the end right geometry of the vehicle!

Dear Fellows! This is some progress in my "StuG III" project: upper hull is now glued, front armor plate is also glued and gaps are filled, and transparent plastic is polished and mounted into the driver vision port. Now it looks quite inaccurate and must be cleaned and filled with a putty.

Some 3d printed details are also cleaned and prepared for the mounting on the vehicle!

Good looking 3D parts... Who makes those?
