    Dragon stug iii aust.g 1/35

    well guys i could not recommend this kit enough I enjoyed the build very much with the kit going together really well I used fruil tracks and aftermarket barrel , the base that everyone seems to like is a mat from Historex called " steps" which I have used for the first time and recommend it .

      This I like, it's nice and simple but yet, very effective.

      I believe the old trick is a nut and bolt through the hull of the tank and into the base...making sure the bolt is counter sunk into the base!

            I usually run a self taping wood screw with a coarse thread through the base into the bottom of the tank which I can tighten depending on the environment to create weight of the tank on the ground

              I do love a STuG & that's a fine example Steve! The paint & camo is spot on for the era. Nice crew figures (they add so much to an AFV) & the vignette base is the perfect setting.

              Cheers

                    Excellent, looks just right, the base sets it off nicely.

                        Really nice stug the weathering is spot on and the dio base is quality..I think that grass base is the stuff I've used very realistic

                          That's a beauty Steve very well presented , I think a simple base makes the build look better
