discussion Sd.Kfz. 167 StuG. IV Dragon - Smart Kit 1/35

[Guest]

Hello. Newest presentation. Sturmgeshutz IV. Western Poland winter 1944- probably it was a time when it died and get rest on the bottom of river RGILEWKA during great Germans escape/defense of Russians. In 2009 polish team found the tank and dragged out of the river. Vehicle has been completely wasted. It was beginning of great restoration activity. Inspired of this unique event I've decided make similar model and :smile:have my own Sturmgeshutz IV:smile:. In addition to above please have a look short movie and visit website of Museum of Armoured Weapons in Poznan.

Muzeum Broni Pancernej - Wirtualnie

And this what I've made.

Hello Bart,

Stug is absolutely one of my favourite vehicles. It's big, nasty and deadly.

Your model is great, but wash imo could be more visible. The same with scratches and bumps. Overall great paint work and clean assembly.

Regards, Bart.

Bluriusz. It's looking so clean on purpose. The main idea was to associating model with the vehicle from museum. I didn't dirt it and damaged because nowadays this StuG IV doesn't take a part of any combat. However I agree with you. Sturmgeshutz is a NASTY BLIZZARD. Thanks for your honest opinion. Regards. Bart.

Nice clean build there Bart.

Great work Bart, a nice clean StuG. It's good to see something different, instead of a grubby, well used tank on a mud covered dio, it's something that could grace a museum. Done well mate.
