                        Ok, Back in the armor forum, there is a group build for april fools day-you know weird pieces of armor. Well anyway, to the point, i have bought a panzer III, and i plan to paint it like a stutka. It is a Tauch(diving) panzer, and I am gonna take this name literally, a dive bombing tank. I do need painting info, however, and you guys seem to be the best out of all the forums to ask. Can you help? The model is from the 1941 period. Remember, Stutka Colors. I don't have an airbrush, so nothing complicated please.Smile [:)]

                        Alternately as a diving panzer, you could put a periscope on it and paint it like a U-boat.

                        i thought of that, but it would not be as interesting to have a 1:35 torpedo coming out the front as to have a speaker with a siren noise, maddafinga! THANK YOU SO MUCH
                        this will help, but I will be back after if finish the camo scheme, if i can't find any markings-although i think i can-i have a few books.

                        Not a problem man, all I did was copy and paste. I hope it helps you out. I'd like to see pics once it's done though.

                        Actually the U-boat idea isn't that bad, especially if you make tiny barnicles that cover the skirts..

                        The only problem I can see with the dive bomber tank is mounting that Torpedo on the bottom Big Smile [:D]

                        Then again, you could paint it like a Zero. Make sure to put a big red spot on the bottom.
