Sturmtiger!
Posted by mstazz62 on Saturday, November 22, 2008 5:33 PM

Here's Tamiya's 1/35 scale Sturmtiger. Always liked the mean-assed look of this vehicle - just looks like it means business! MM paints, Cavalier Zim, and lots of TLC!

Thanks for lookin'

Mark

  Nice job Mark. The brute defiantly looks like it means business. The cammo and weathering look great. I have only a couple of suggestions. The road wheels and the guide teeth on the tracks need to have a shine were they make contact with each other. And the other which is a pet peeve among all of us is to drill out you MG barrel.

  Did the interior come with the kit or is it after market?

 Good looker here Mark with a real nice camo job. I've got this one put back for a build at some later date.

 Just to help, at this stage of the war I believe the insides of all those hatches should be primer red...... or at least the base exterior color.

I really like the camo.

Thanks for the replies guys!

Panzerguy - I definitly agree about the road wheels and MG barrel - this is another old kit done about 7 , 8 years ago - so as I go I learn more tricks to make better models. having just figured out how to post I'm posting just about everything I have - my newer stuff is better (IMHO)

Zaster - Yep , a good catch - again more things I don't do anymore. I figure each model I build is a little better than the one before. Also, having a computer on my model bench makes research much easier!

Again, thanks for your input-

Mark
