Things are a little slow here, so I'll post a couple of pics of a Stug IV I'm working on. Sorry, no kits for this one - too much work. I don't know why 21st doesn't put out some of these variants.

Yeah, and that's one of their worst offerings. It looks like it has 32 flat tires or an Elefant was dropped on it.

Good luck with your Sturmgeshutzs, looks like it will turn out great!

Admittedly, the FOV Stug is far superior to the 21C version, but the 21C example isn't all that bad in my opinion, and when you consider that you can bring one home for about $15, or less if you catch it on clearance, it has lots of potential for repainting, weathering, or converting it to a "knocked out" model in a dio, and so on. All things considered it's really not that terrible.

I think this is the first Stug I have seen here Gary. Very nice structure so far. I can't wait to see it finished.

Noticed your superstructure doesn't include the extension that housed the driver on the Stug IV. Since the PZIV had a longer chassis then the PZIII, it was neccessary to lenghten the left front side.

That's coming. Still a long way to go.
Moth, the flat tires was supposed to be a joke.

Awww she`s a thing of beauty mate & looking forward to seeing this completed.
I too don`t understand why TUS haven`t done the STUGs at XD. Be easier that actual panzers & Stugs are well liked too.
