The Stug III G only had waffle pattern zimmerit. Very rare to see another type.

if you want to be histroically accurate then i wouldnt give it zimmerite. however if not, be creative, give it the same type as the Tiger I had. that would look kool.

Many Stug III G's carried Zimmerit, so by using it would still make it histirocally correct

Well Stug III's really didn't see that type of Zimmerit that Tiger 1's (traditional ridged) had. The Stug III had a waffle pattern Zim almost exclusively. Stug IV's had a zimmerit pattern similar to what Tiger's had aka the rigged zimmerit.

http://www.panzerdiesel.com/data/e/27stug3_miag.html I think that that is a Stug 3 G, and it has the checked pattern seen on Jagdpanthers.

Only the Stug III G late had zimerite, Unless you show me an early one with zimerite, I have seen hundreds of pics of stug III's and only the late ones had it.

Yep, that is correctomundo Airbrush. But again there are always exceptions, especially when it came to filed applied zimmerit.
