#stug 3

The Sturmgeschütz is and always will be my favorite German armored vehicle. I made a lot of models of this versatile German piece of mechanics, and they never bored me. Only 1 I made had a 1:16 scale, and with that one I finished my hobby...

Not quite figured out which I like best, the 3 or 4!

It's just fun to mess with these vehicles, mangle the side skirts, and add stowage racks on the back... so much you can do to it!

Even made a fantasy version...

The below version is the 1:16 one!

Nr.247 Stug 40 with Winterketten ( winter chains ).

Sturmgeschütz 40 Ausf.F, Ausf. F/8 and Ausf. G (Sd.Kfz.142/1).

Beginning with the StuG III Ausf. G from December 1942, a 7.92 mm MG34 machine gun could be mounted on a shield on top of the superstructure for added anti-infantry protection. Some of the F/8 models were retrofitted with a shield. An additional coaxial 7.92 mm MG34 started to appear in 1944 and became standard on all production during the same year.

The Stug 3 based on the Panzerkampfwagen 3 originally intended as a artillery/breakthrough tank but it adepted a role of a panzerhunter tank. On of my all time favorites an I can't tell you why.

Added a tree to the dio and some more snow ( the Joefix powdersnow goes everywhere in youre nose, clothes and hair and you’ll be itching all day! )
