    Yes, under all the cr*p found 2 14inch guns, barrel of rum and a picture of Nelson??

      I don't think he means it literally, more like when I say throw or splash some paint at it instead of I painted it, just like I threw the kit together...

          Oh 'Admiral' Bob.............You have definitely gone over to the Floaty side...I had hoped you would have seen my post in the Latest Acquisitions (halfway down page 89) and had different thoughts on a build. I realize you started this before the new workplace was done and were working in your old habitat. With that wonderful new shop, I had hoped to see at least one StuG on the new bench Buddy!!!..

            Just seen your post well done sir. Never fear starting to get the AFV modeller accessories for my 1/16 StuG. Santa is also getting me AFV StuG stuff!
            That's after I have finished the sub and KGV

                      Bob, I fear you are lost to the wet side, they need to bring out a stug with a rudder to bring you back to the light. Good to see you back at the bench.

                            Bit surprised to see a gap in the decks in the middle of the conning tower. Also had to some filling elsewhere. Leaving off the periscope etc until last Inc the radio cables etc

                            Otherwise not being to fussy, treating this as get back to the bench build.
