He Guys,
I started my rendition of the Sturmtiger right after I finished the M-10 Ersatz proto.
I have worked on it for 3 days now.
I made the vented callor and have started on the gun tube.
I wasn't sure how to even start the tube so I settled on using one of my script bottles and started working kind of like a ship in a bottle.
It was important to get to get the riffling inside the tube.
I only had CA glue to work with and as soon as I slid the rifling tube inside the main tube it locked up.
So I could not get the twist that I wanted.
I got some twist and considering the time and effort to get what I got ,it will have to do !!!!!
I will probably have to split the barrel in half in order to make a Mould of it.
If everything goes well I will be adding these details to the build.
All hatches will open
2 projectiles
Loading crane
Loading dolly frame for the interior.

Nice work Pickel, it seems to be correct. I like the overall look of your Sturmtiger and I could
see it with Grunts Tiger I snap together tracks. That would look cool!
Might need a couple of sets...
