You said in your other post that its the Academy's kit. How did it build? I have an Academy Panzer IV, and the fit is horrible! It is about 70% complete and I can't even bring myself to attempt the repair.

Your kit looks great, I love the Camo job, and if this kit is anything like the IV, then you my hat goes off to you! ;-)

Pretty nice, good work. If I may suggest putting a electical wire from the headlight to the conductor. It will make it look even better,or hollow out the tip of the barrel on the MG too, give it a good washing as well if ya didnt already, I have learned that its all about the small details that make the model.

This kit is an Academy StuG IV, it all fitted perfectly except the "tires" It was quite an easy kit to build, and really inexpensive, only €11,75 (about 14 dollars I think) This kit was a pleasure to build

How did you get the camo that complex?

The camo was quite easy to spray (I use an airbrush, revel standard class)
First I sprayed all the part in yellow (revell16) when they were still in the frame
Second I sprayed put together most parts of the upper hull so I could spray the camo on it
3rd and 4th I sprayed the green and brown (revel 40 and revel 83) for the large camo spots
5th: I sprayed all the small spots (which the following pattern: yellow and brown on green, green and brown on yellow and brown and green on yellow, it’s rather easy but it gave s a nice effect in my opinion
I toke this pictures in the backyard on a large piece of white paper
