    Bob's 2nd build and yes its a StuG. Tamiya 1/35 Ausf G plus extras

    Morning again :thumb2:

    This is my 2nd build and yes just had to do a StuG. Doctors orders by the way :smiling5:

    Back to my favourite StuG know its inaccurate but its a beauty to build. I always have one in stock

    Going to add a lot of stuff to both correct the problems but also add to it plus some very basic scratching (sorry) not much good at the dark art :disappointed2:

    Going to add rear deck rack, brackets to hang extra tracks and extra spare wheel storage, plus wear and tear damage

    CMK kits to correct the roof, engine deck and rear panel, although research might make some of these parts redundant?

        Hi Bob
        Simon would expect a StuG from you that's for sure. Wonderful load of extras - bet they cost about 10 times what you paid for the kit :tongue-out3: I like that Legend stowage kit.

          Bob. There’s a lot of Medication there from the Doctor. Hope you don’t over dose. Yes I’m with Jim. Simon would have it no other way

                  I do like a StuG or 50 and yes rather a lot more than the kit, ouch! Had the legend kit for ages, from a charity shop in Cotswolds. Should be a nightmare lol
