Completed...'In the Woods'....Brush Painted 'Disc Camo' Stug IV with schurzen.

[Gern]

Never noticed it before, but the StuG looks quite menacing while waiting in ambush in it's 'natural' habitat. Cracking work as usual Ron.

That type of camouflage wasn't invented until much later, when image recognition software was developed. There weren't even any computers around at WWII

Ahh well then, there you go. Me showing my armour ignorance. I didn't realise it was a WW2 vehicle. Image recognition back in those days was all by Mk 1 eyeball !

Thanks folks.
Glad you approve of my finished effort.

Ron you truly are the hairy stick king in my eyes. So I'm forcing myself to paint with a brush more and more now as I can see how handy a string it is to my modelling bow. I use gunze acrylics and Vallejo model air and I know you said it can take a few coats but how thin should I be knocking the paints up and how do I stop them going off so quick on the pallet? I have some flow enhancer would this help.
Great build mate.

Thanks Phil, but King?! Nah, too many have had their heads chopped off. I'll keep mine firmly below the parapet....
Thanks for the compliment none the less.

Regarding your questions, rather than answer them on this thread, I'll write a brief summat over on The Paint Booth - Brush painting.

Cheers.

I've been looking at your pictures too many times now Ron so I've decided to give it a go myself!
I've got a Jagdpanther 2 built and primed where I just can't decide how to paint it and disc camo pattern should fit this "what if" tank destroyer I think?!

This means after dinner tonight I'll start cutting out little circles in masking tape and hope for the best
Wish me luck...
