    Had no problems spraying and not thinned

    Did spray on top of the Tamiya lp, went on well, good coverage and no blockages etc. Will use this again for interiors

      Nice work on the interior wet stuff Bob. I always use Aged White or Ivory by Vallejo for the interior walls. Once you have done some weathering and put a dark filter on it the look will be spot on

            This was indeed a pleasant surprise! Since I finally got around to beginning my copy of the very same kit in the GB, I hope to follow this as well to be forewarned, learn about which colours to use, etc.

            Here's hoping for your full recovery and a pleasurable remaining build!

              Thank you very much sir

              I have a slight obsession with StuG's with 4 in the painting stage. Not too sure you will learn much lol

                Its been months & months but, back to StuG Ausf A ( 2), lots of StuGs on the go, lovely!!

                Almost ready, if you can remember that far back, the A (2) used a Pz 111 F hull with the supertructure from the up and coming Ausf B which had a redesigned gunner roof hatch. The Dragon A kit does not come with the new hatch.

                Thanks to Mike's generous help he made one!!! Cracking skills!!! The white area is the scratched hatch, perfect fit:thumb2:

                I have tacked the superstructure as it was a stuggle to fit, got more to do inc adding the fender supports which go underneath, they should straighten up the fenders

                          That's coming together nicely Bob, very kind of Mike to scratch a new hatch, I hope all is well with him too.

                              Added some plastic card to represent the 20mm added armour to the bow, this added to the Pz 111's 30mm bringing the total thickness up to a StuG' 50mm

                              Could have been neater, d'oh! Could not think of a way to represent the screws so used some Verlinden bolt heads, very, very small, the set said to clean up first, clean up i'd need the Hubble space telescope to see it

                              Still i think it looks ok, but not to close please!! Next paint the wheels and DS tracks
