Does the barrel look right or is it the neck of a some imported beer bottle?

Buy it now for 205.00?
I wonder if he would take a couple of those "RARE" italian 1/32 planes for this??

Cool idea and model but I really don't like the color of paint that seller uses on a lot of his stuff. I do like the shell that he uses.

This guy's pieces and prices never cease to amaze. You'd think he could at least call it what it's supposed to represent. It looks like he put a Playmobile house on top of a Tiger, and stuck a PVC plumbing fixture to the front. Yikes!
Oh, and is anyone aware of there ever being an all grey Sturmtiger? This guy needs more colors in his paint box.

Yeah, pretty sad.... It is "supposed to be" a Sturmtiger, but he obviously was trying to build it from memory rather than looking at reference materials.. And Panzer Grey is
TOTALLY the wrong color for this vehicle..

I also just noticed the diameter of the bore. It's big enough to be a clown cannon at the circus. lol

Its supposed to be a Sturmtiger not Stugtiger, I plan on making one of these. Which one will be better? Mine or beer-bottle-barrel?

yes i saw it earlier today. He has re-used his Jagdpanther conversion set again (he also used it to make his Jagdpanzer IV custom) to make this sturmtiger custom. You have to admire his resourcefulness.
This is probably where he got the left over barrel for his hanomag with 88 custom.
Say what you want about the guy, he's creative and his customs do sell, so somebody likes them. He's carved himself a little niche that no one else seems to have filled yet..

All of that attention for just 18 production tanks. Funny......
