        I'm going to step out on a limb here and speculate as to what Simon might have said if he were with us now..........."Bob, are you Daft"?.......that's not a StuG! Rick H.

          Very nice work Bob. Looks totally real. Having spent most of my life in that part of the world I know how worn vehicles soon get.

              Meant to comment on this the other day but only had my phone on me.... Much like now really!! Smilies don't seem to appear when posted from my phone?!
              Anyway,BOB,Sir...... What's this with you pretending for years that you were Sug only?! From this build alone it's obvious that you can get a cracking result with any afv you turn your hand to!
              That really is awesome mate,a wonderful, realistic representation of a well used,desert vehicle....well done indeed Sir!(Thumbs up and cool shades face!).

                Well it certainly came out the way you hoped Bob. A very dusty finish. Mr T would have been suitably impressed. I really enjoyed watching this model come together. Well done my friend

                  Bob, as you can expect the Committee has agreed a fine piece of work like this is a worthy indeed of the Dogs Award.
