        A bit more done, the tracks fitted. The schurtzen took a bit of care to fit, I'm going for a slightly dishevelled look of an abandoned stug, left to the allies & picked over. The etch plates have to be hung on hooks on the rails & track guards, trying to get them to go on all the hooks together was trying, there are a few scratches on the hooks to touch up. Here is the stug as it is now, yes the schurtzen plates are meant to be hanging off & out of line!

              Morn Graeme,

              My humble apologies Sir for not commenting on this beauty before. I must have had a severe brain fart or something………..

              I like it very much and I love your use of those technical terms too. Skirts look good and shaken about. Are you going to place it under an olive tree??? That would be cool...…...

                Steven, Rick, thanks for the kind words.
                Allen, thanks, hadn't thought of an olive tree, May have to look at doing a base for it though.
                Added a bit of stowage, bits left behind from a hurried exit by the crew, adjusted the skirts a bit. There are a couple of bits to do but it's more or less there.
