Dragon Stug III G wading muffler (Tunisia)

[Noobmodeler521]

Hello all fellow scale model builders

I am new to ism but not new to the hobby and want to say this looks like another great community of people who seem to encourage others on their builds

Anyway this is a build I had finished recently and happened to win third place for in my category I thought I would love to share it with you all This is a StuG III G and I did based in North Africa specifically Tunisia. I did a lot of research on what the tanks would have looked like from weather as well as what it would have carried. I am happy with my result and hope you all enjoy it as much I have.









Thank You for looking and please any comments and constructive criticism is welcome

Have a good one guys

Wow. I am impressed.

My only criticism is because I was in an armoured unit and has to do with 'assorted field tools' and I have seen this on MANY models, but in r/l, it was our practice in 2d ACR to NOT put the shovels etc on the outside of the vehicles even though they are accoutered with mounting points/brackets etc. Granted the model looks spiffy with all the gear present and this one was no exception, it just wasn't done in the US Military when I served. But this is my own belief and perhaps would have earned you negative points in the contest, so do not take this as bible.

On the other hand, I am JEALOUS of your skill at weathering and wear. My goodness I can only hope to get so good!
