        Not great and afraid to breathe on them

        With the chain threatening to take off at any time, shaking hands and shot nerves, finally got there

        Have ordered what i hope is fine chain, that will hang and look i hope much better on the coming Ausf B

        Chain looks great - stop panicking - and breathe the blue colour does not suit you.....

                Right lets get back on with this one!

                StuG Ausf A ( 2 )

                This also had the decal disaster, but thankfully not as many decals as the StuG B

                Not finished yet, got tools and exhaust to do yet as well

                Had problems with Dragons ds tracks, used normal glue but one set fell apart so used CA? Not much give in them for sag!

                Got to work on wheels next, hoping for a dusty finish, not so muddy? Can see some areas which need tidying up

                  Looking good so far Bob, the wheels will need a bit more mud & dust than the rest of the Stug, it doesn't look too much, just a bit of tidying & blending.:thumb2:
