First Armour Build - 1/35 Tamiya StuG IV - Finished!

[ElCapitan]

Finally finished my first ever proper attempt at an armour subject! I've really enjoyed it from start to finish, and it's definitely something I'll do more of - already am, in fact, check out my panzerjager thread.

I know the aerials are missing - my attempts to stretch sprue were a disaster!

You did a great job on this one! You really managed to do a great job on a monotone colour.

Thanks guys!

I usually build planes. Might be converted now though!

Awesome work Rob - that looks superb.

If you want to try something else for aerials then if I don't go After-Market then I use an appropriate length of light-gauge steel guitar string (.008 or .007) - I've never managed to get consisted results trying to stretch sprue.

That's a great idea, I'll have a look in my guitar spares box, I'm sure I keep a few of my unbroken old strings for emergencies.
